Abstract :
Distributed concurrency control has been implemented by representing in-progress transactions as simulated objects, called transaction objects, that use normal message passing facilities. The implementation of an optimistic mechanism has been completed using transaction objects and a two-phase locking mechanism has been designed. The tradeoffs made and lessons learned, dealing with transactions both on objects and as objects, are discussed
