Concurrency Control and Recovery in Database Systems

Abstract

This book is an introduction to the design and implementation of concurrency control and recovery mechanisms for transaction management in centralized and distributed database systems. Concurrency control and recovery have become increasingly important as businesses rely more and more heavily on their on-line data processing activities. For high performance, the system must maximize concurrency by multiprogramming transactions. But this can lead to interference between queries and updates, which concurrency control mechanisms must avoid. In addition, a satisfactory recovery system is necessary to ensure that inevitable transaction and database system failures do not corrupt the database.
