Commitment ordering

Commitment ordering (CO) is a class of interoperable serializability techniques in concurrency control of databases, transaction processing, and related applications. It allows optimistic (non-blocking) implementations. With the proliferation of multi-core processors, CO has also been increasingly utilized in concurrent programming, transactional memory, and software transactional memory (STM) to achieve serializability optimistically. CO is also the name of the resulting transaction schedule (history) property, defined in 1988 with the name dynamic atomicity.

Concurrency control

In information technology and computer science, especially in the fields of computer programming, operating systems, multiprocessors, and databases, concurrency control ensures that correct results for concurrent operations are generated, while getting those results as quickly as possible. Computer systems, both software and hardware, consist of modules, or components. Each component is designed to operate correctly, i.e., to obey or to meet certain consistency rules.

Database transaction

A database transaction symbolizes a unit of work, performed within a database management system (or similar system) against a database, that is treated in a coherent and reliable way independent of other transactions. A transaction generally represents any change in a database. Transactions in a database environment have two main purposes: To provide reliable units of work that allow correct recovery from failures and keep a database consistent even in cases of system failure.

Théorie de l'ordonnancement

La théorie de l'ordonnancement est une branche de la recherche opérationnelle qui s'intéresse au calcul de dates d'exécution optimales de tâches. Pour cela, il est très souvent nécessaire d'affecter en même temps les ressources nécessaires à l'exécution de ces tâches. Un problème d'ordonnancement peut être considéré comme un sous-problème de planification dans lequel il s'agit de décider de l'exécution opérationnelle des tâches planifiées.

Distributed transaction

A distributed transaction is a database transaction in which two or more network hosts are involved. Usually, hosts provide transactional resources, while the transaction manager is responsible for creating and managing a global transaction that encompasses all operations against such resources. Distributed transactions, as any other transactions, must have all four ACID (atomicity, consistency, isolation, durability) properties, where atomicity guarantees all-or-nothing outcomes for the unit of work (operations bundle).

Global serializability

In concurrency control of databases, transaction processing (transaction management), and other transactional distributed applications, global serializability (or modular serializability) is a property of a global schedule of transactions. A global schedule is the unified schedule of all the individual database (and other transactional object) schedules in a multidatabase environment (e.g., federated database).

Timestamp-based concurrency control

In computer science, a timestamp-based concurrency control algorithm is a non-lock concurrency control method. It is used in some databases to safely handle transactions, using timestamps. Every timestamp value is unique and accurately represents an instant in time. A higher-valued timestamp occurs later in time than a lower-valued timestamp. A number of different ways have been used to generate timestamp Use the value of the system's clock at the start of a transaction as the timestamp.

Multiversion Concurrency Control

Multiversion concurrency control (abrégé en MCC ou MVCC) est une méthode informatique de contrôle des accès concurrents fréquemment utilisée dans les systèmes de gestion de base de données et les langages de programmation concernant la gestion des caches en mémoire. Le principe de MVCC repose sur un verrouillage dit optimiste contrairement au verrouillage pessimiste qui consiste à bloquer préalablement les objets à des garanties de bonne fin. L'inconvénient logique est qu'une mise à jour peut être annulée du fait d'un "blocage" en fin de traitement.

Commit (data management)

In computer science and data management, a commit is the making of a set of tentative changes permanent, marking the end of a transaction and providing Durability to ACID transactions. A commit is an act of committing. The record of commits is called the commit log. In terms of transactions, the opposite of commit is to discard the tentative changes of a transaction, a rollback. The transaction, commit and rollback concepts are key to the ACID property of databases.

Snapshot isolation

In databases, and transaction processing (transaction management), snapshot isolation is a guarantee that all reads made in a transaction will see a consistent snapshot of the database (in practice it reads the last committed values that existed at the time it started), and the transaction itself will successfully commit only if no updates it has made conflict with any concurrent updates made since that snapshot.
