According to Hien Nam Lee,A Transaction Processing for Supporting Mobile
Collaborative Works. The theme of this research is mobile transaction processing
systems, focusing on versatile data sharing mechanisms in volatile mobile
environments. The theme of this thesis is transaction processing in mobile and
heterogeneous environments. The main focus of this thesis is on developing a
mobile transaction processing system that has the ability to support mobile data
sharing and to cope with the dynamic changes of mobile environments.
According to Lesley Wevers, A Persistent Functional Language for Concurrent
Transaction Processing. Where transaction processing systems could once only be
found in the realm of large organisations, the decreasing cost of computing
resources and the advent of the internet have made transaction processing systems
an integral part of many small organisations and almost every website. Typical
examples of transaction processing systems include banking systems, ticket
reservation systems and inventory management systems. A transaction processing
system often manages all the data of an organisation. Data that has to be available
instantly, sometimes to many thousands of simultaneous users, while providing the
illusion that each user has exclusive access to the data. In this thesis, we
investigate the use of functional programming languages for the construction of
transaction processing systems. It has already been known for some time that
functional languages provide an interesting basis for the implementation, querying
and manipulation of databases [26, 28, 38], which are an essential part of a
transaction processing system.
According to Ippokratis Pandis, Scalable Transaction Processing through
Data-oriented Execution. Data processing and the dissemination of information,
enabled and backed by data management technologies, are changing the world we
live in. Consider the recent uprisings in the Arab world, which were greatly
influenced by the social websites Facebook and Twitter. One of the most challenging
database workloads is transaction processing. The main characteristic of this type of
workload is that it consists of a multitude of concurrent requests which typically
touch only a small portion of a multi-gigabyte database in a largely unpredictable
way. The concurrent requests need to complete consistently and in isolation from
any other, while the changes made need to be durable. Transaction processing
systems need to provide both high throughput and low response times.
Unfortunately, the transaction processing model has remained largely the same for
the past three decades, and that imposes some inherent scalability difficulties
