Concurrency control and recovery of multidatabase work flows in telecommunication applications
W. Woody Jin, Marek Rusinkiewicz, Linda A. Ness, Amit Sheth · 1993
In a research and technology application project at Bellcore, we used multidatabase transactions to model multisystem work flows of telecommunication applications. During the project a prototype scheduler for executing multi-database transactions was developed. Two of the issues addressed in this project were concurrent execution of multi-database transactions and their failure recovery. This paper discusses our use of properties of the application and the telecommunication systems to develop simple and efficient solutions to the concurrency control and recovery problems.
