Concurrency Control and Recovery in Database Systems
TL;DR: In this article, the design and implementation of concurrency control and recovery mechanisms for transaction management in centralized and distributed database systems is described. But this can lead to interference between queries and updates.

A survey of approaches to automatic schema matching
Erhard Rahm,Philip A. Bernstein +1 more
TL;DR: A taxonomy is presented that distinguishes between schema-level and instance-level, element- level and structure- level, and language-based and constraint-based matchers and is intended to be useful when comparing different approaches to schema matching, when developing a new match algorithm, and when implementing a schema matching component.
Proceedings Article
Generic Schema Matching with Cupid
TL;DR: This paper proposes a new algorithm, Cupid, that discovers mappings between schema elements based on their names, data types, constraints, and schema structure, using a broader set of techniques than past approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concurrency Control in Distributed Database Systems
TL;DR: A survey of concurrency control methods for distributed database concurrency can be found in this paper, where the authors decompose the problem into two major subproblems, read-write and write-write synchronization, and describe a series of synchromzation techniques for solving each subproblem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Middleware: a model for distributed system services
TL;DR: Today’s enterprise computing facilities are only an approximation of the vision of an information utility, and some businesses are redefining their business processes to use the utility to bridge formerly isolated component activities.
