Semantic Based Concurrency Control of Open Nested Transactions in Active Object Oriented Database Management Systems

摘要

Active object oriented database management systems (AODBMS) are finding increasing application in different application domains and especially for cooperative and long duration activity management. In this paper, we propose a concurrency control mechanism for open nested transactions in an AODBMS. It exploits the semantics of the transactions to achieve controlled cooperation and concurrency among the transactions. Atomic AODBMS transactions are treated as base transactions.
