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

Modeling asynchrony in distributed databases

TL;DR: A new relationship type is proposed which permits describing the issues raised when information is distributed over autonomous workstations, and identifies data which should eventually match, but which can be in differing states for some time intervals.

Synchronizing transactions on objects
TL;DR: A method is discussed for synchronizing operations on objects when the operations are invoked by transactions, which takes into consideration the granularity at which operations affect an object.

Warp: Lightweight Multi-Key Transactions for Key-Value Stores
TL;DR: This paper presents a novel protocol for providing serializable transactions on top of a sharded data store called acyclic transactions, which allows multiple transactions to prepare and commit simultaneously, improving concurrency in the system, while ensuring that no cycles form between concurrently-committing transactions.

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.
