  • Abstract
    A model of nested transactions in distributed database systems is presented. The modeling approach is based on conflict serializability extended to accommodate multilevel transactions. Based on these definitions, serialization graph testing for nested transactions is discussed. Three concurrency control algorithms and proofs of their correctness are presented. The algorithms are an adaptation of serialization graph testing, an adaptation of the timestamp ordering protocol, and a variation of an optimistic protocol presented by H.T. Kung and J.T. Robinson (1981)
