Abstract :
Web services have capabilities that make them suitable to meet the requirements posed by collaborative editing applications (CEAs). In this paper we describe how AuTrA(Adaptable user defined Transaction relaxing Approach), a system for composing web applications that allows user-specified varying of transaction characteristics, can be usefully applied to collaborative editing. We show how the application of AuTrA can be efficacious for business processing by increasing work throughput. A major feature of AuTrA is support for relaxation of any ACID property of transactions in certain circumstances.
