X Abstract

We decompose the problem of concurrency control into the sub-problems of read-write and write-write synchronization. We present a series of timestamp- based algorithms (called synchronization techniques) that achieve read-write and/or write-write synchronization. And we show how to combine any read-write technique with any write-write technique to yield a complete concurrency control algorithm (called a method). Using this framework we describe 12 "principal" concurrency control methods in detail. Each principal method can be modified by refinements described in the paper, leading to more than 50 distinct concurrency control algorithms.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
