TLDR
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.Abstract:
In this paper we survey, consolidate, and present the state of the art in distributed database concurrency control. The heart of our analysts is a decomposition of the concurrency control problem into two major subproblems: read-write and write-write synchronization. We describe a series of synchromzation techniques for solving each subproblem and show how to combine these techniques into algorithms for solving the entire concurrency control problem. Such algorithms are called "concurrency control methods." We describe 48 principal methods, including all practical algorithms that have appeared m the literature plus several new ones. We concentrate on the structure and correctness of concurrency control algorithms. Issues of performance are given only secondary treatment.read more

Parallel rule firing in production systems
TL;DR: To improve the performance of forward chaining production systems, a new parallel execution model in which multiple production rules are fired in parallel in each production cycle is proposed and the degree of concurrency can be increased by a factor of 2-9.

Concurrent Certifications by Intervals of Timestamps in Distributed Database Systems
TL;DR: The main advantage of this certification method is that it allows a chronological commit order which differs from the serialization one (thus avoiding rejections or delays of transactions which occur in usual certification methods or in classical locking or timestamping ones).

Distributed optimistic concurrency control with reduced rollback
TL;DR: A distributed, multi-version, optimistic concurrency control scheme is described which is particularly advantageous in a query-dominant environment and is also free from dedlock and cascading rollback problems.

AO challenge - implementing the ACID properties for transactional objects
Jörg Kienzle,Samuel Gélineau +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a challenge case study to the aspect-oriented community: ensuring the ACID properties (atomicity, consistency, isolation and durability) for transactional objects by defining a set of ten base aspects, each one providing a well-defined reusable functionality.

Equivalence and optimization of relational transactions
Serge Abiteboul,Victor Vianu +1 more
TL;DR: A large class of relational database update transactions is investigated with respect to equivalence and optimization, and a simple, natural subclass of transactions, called strongly acyclic, is shown to have particularly desirable properties.

Time, clocks, and the ordering of events in a distributed system
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of one event happening before another in a distributed system is examined, and a distributed algorithm is given for synchronizing a system of logical clocks which can be used to totally order the events.

The notions of consistency and predicate locks in a database system
TL;DR: It is argued that a transaction needs to lock a logical rather than a physical subset of the database, and an implementation of predicate locks which satisfies the consistency condition is suggested.

Monitors: an operating system structuring concept
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors develop Brinch-Hansen's concept of a monitor as a method of structuring an operating system and describe a possible method of implementation in terms of semaphores and give a suitable proof rule.

TL;DR: This paper is a compendium of data base management operating systems folklore and focuses on particular issues unique to the transaction management component especially locking and recovery.
