A Survey of Concurrency Control Mechanisms for Centralized and Distributed Databases.

Abstract

One of the most important problems in the design of centralized and distributed database management systems is the problem of concurrency control. Even though many different solutions have been proposed, a unifying theory is still not in sight. This report attempts to survey all the published proposals on concurrency control. In particular, a taxonomy is developed for the classification of concurrency control techniques for distributed database systems. The survey of these twenty some concurrency control mechanisms are in the framework of this taxonomy.
