Robustness Against Read Committed: A Free Transactional Lunch

Christoph Koch, Bas Ketsman

Transaction processing is a central part of most database applications. While serializability remains the gold standard for desirable transactional semantics, many database systems offer improved transaction throughput at the expense of introducing potenti ...

Fast General Distributed Transactions with Opacity

Aleksandar Dragojevic, Stanko Novakovic, Georgios Chatzopoulos

Transactions can simplify distributed applications by hiding data distribution, concurrency, and failures from the application developer. Ideally the developer would see the abstraction of a single large machine that runs transactions sequentially and neve ...

Distributed Transactional Systems Cannot Be Fast

Rachid Guerraoui, Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Junxiong Wang, Panagiota Fatourou

We prove that no fully transactional system can provide fast read transactions (including read-only ones that are considered the most frequent in practice). Specifically, to achieve fast read transactions, the system has to give up support of transactions ...

The Complexity of Reliable and Secure Distributed Transactions

Junxiong Wang

The use of transactions in distributed systems dates back to the 70's. The last decade has also seen the proliferation of transactional systems. In the existing transactional systems, many protocols employ a centralized approach in executing a distributed ...

Locking Timestamps versus Locking Objects

Rachid Guerraoui, Junxiong Wang, Tudor Alexandru David

We present multiversion timestamp locking (MVTL), a new genre of multiversion concurrency control algorithms for serializable transactions. The key idea behind MVTL is simple: lock individual timestamps instead of locking objects. After presenting a generi ...

Wren: Nonblocking Reads in a Partitioned Transactional Causally Consistent Data Store

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

Transactional Causal Consistency (TCC) extends causal consistency, the strongest consistency model compatible with availability, with interactive read-write transactions, and is therefore particularly appealing for geo-replicated platforms. This paper pres ...

A Scale-out Blockchain for Value Transfer with Spontaneous Sharding

Kelong Cong

Bitcoin, as well as many of its successors, require the whole transaction record to be reliably acquired by all nodes to prevent double-spending. Recently, many blockchains have been proposed to achieve scale-out throughput by letting nodes only acquire a ...

How Fast can a Distributed Transaction Commit?

Rachid Guerraoui, Junxiong Wang

The atomic commit problem lies at the heart of distributed database systems. The problem consists for a set of processes (database nodes) to agree on whether to commit or abort a transaction (agreement property). The commit decision can only be taken if al ...

Distributed Planar Manipulation in Fluidic Environments

Guillaume Adrien Sartoretti

We present a distributed control mechanism allowing a swarm of non-holonomic autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) to synchronously arrange around a rectangular floating object in a grasping formation; the swarm is then able to collaboratively transport the o ...
