Using Optimistic Atomic Broadcast in Transaction Processing Systems

André Schiper, Matthias Wiesmann, Fernando Pedone

Atomic broadcast primitives are often proposed as a mechanism to allow fault-tolerant cooperation between sites in a distributed system. Unfortunately, the delay incurred before a message can be delivered makes it difficult to implement high performance, s ...

Transaction Support for Ada

Jörg Kienzle

This paper describes the transaction support framework OPTIMA and its implementation for Ada 95. First, a transaction model that fits concurrent programming languages is presented. Then the design of the framework is given. Applications from many different ...

Action-Oriented Exception Handling in Cooperative and Competitive Object-Oriented Systems

Jörg Kienzle

The chief aim of this survey is to discuss exception handling models which have been developed for concurrent object systems. In conducting this discussion we rely on the following fundamental principles: exception handling should be associated with struct ...

Implementing Exceptions in Open Multithreaded Transactions

Jörg Kienzle

This position paper shows how Ada 95 exceptions have been used in a prototype implementation of a transaction support in order to provide more elaborate exception handling. The paper summarizes the open multithreaded transaction model, which is a transacti ...

Implementing e-Transactions with Asynchronous Replication

Rachid Guerraoui

An e-Transaction is one that executes exactly-once despite failures. This paper describes a distributed protocol that implements the abstraction of e-Transactionsin three-tier architectures. Three-tier architectures are typically Internet-oriented architec ...

Data Replication Strategies for Fault Tolerance and Availability on Commodity Clusters

Willy Zwaenepoel

Recent work has shown the advantages of using persistent memory for transaction processing. In particular, the Vista transaction system uses recoverable memory to avoid disk I/O, thus improving performance by several orders of magnitude. In such a system, ...

Exactly-Once Transactions

Rachid Guerraoui

A three-tier application is organized as three layers: human users interact with front-end clients (e.g browsers); middle-tier application servers (e.g. Web servers) contain the application's business logic, and perform transactions against back-end databa ...

The database state machine and group communication issues

Fernando Pedone

Distributed computing is reshaping the way people think about and do daily life activities. On-line ticket reservation, electronic commerce, and telebanking are examples of services that would be hardly imaginable without distributed computing. Nevertheles ...

A Systematic Classification of Replicated Database Protocols based on Atomic Broadcast

André Schiper, Matthias Wiesmann, Fernando Pedone

Database replication protocols based on group communication primitives have recently emerged as a promising technology to improve database fault-tolerance and performance. Roughly speaking, this approach consists in exploiting the order and atomicity prope ...
