This paper investigates the performance improvement opportunities through a resiliency mechanism in the distributed primary/backup database system. Recognizing that a distributed transaction executes at several servers during its lifetime, we propose a resiliency mechanism which allows continuous transaction processing in distributed database server systems in the presence of a server failure. In order to perform continuous transaction processing despite failures, every state change of a transaction processing can be saved in the backup server. Obviously, this pessimistic synchronization may give more burdens than benefits to the system. Thus, the tracking needs not be done synchronously with the transaction progress. Instead, the state of all transaction processing in a system is saved periodically. This activity is referred to as a savepoint. Then, the question is how often the savepoint has to be done. We derive the optimal savepoint to identify the optimization parameters for the resilient transaction processing system.

본 논문에서는 분산 실시간 시스템의 특징인 분산 처리 과정의 신뢰성을 지원하기 위한 동적 트랜잭션 처리 구조를 연구하였다. 실시간 분산 처리 환경에서 동적으로 발생하는 실시간 분산 트랜잭션 처리를 위하여 트랜잭션 내에 필수적인 3가지 언어적 특성들을 제시하였다. 첫째는 트랜잭션 내에 실시간 시스템의 가장 중요한 특징인 시간적인 제약 조건들을 정의 할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고, 둘째는 비동기적인 처리 성격을 지닌 실시간 특성을 고려한 비동기적 트랜잭션 처리 방법을 제시한다. 또한, 분산 처리 과정에서 발생되는 예외 사항들을 처리하기 위하여 긴급성을 고려한 다중레벨 우선순위 스케줄링 (Multi-Level Priotiry Scheduling)이라 부르는 트랜잭션 스케줄링 방안을 제시한다. 그리고, 제시한 실시간 분산 트랜잭션 처리 구조의 타당성 및 가능성을 입증하기 위한 실시간 트랜잭션 처리 과정을 시물레이션을 통하여 제시한 언어적 특성에 대한 고려 사항들을 보여준다.Abstract We propose a dynamic transaction processing model that supports a reliability for distributed real-time processing. For the dynamic processing in distributed real-time transaction systems, we suggest three features that are defined in programming language. First, we propose a specification model to explicitly define the time constraints, needs in real-time distributed processing. Second, we describe an asynchronous transaction processing mechanism based on the real-time characteristics. So, we suggest three communication primitives to support asynchronous transaction processing. Lastly, a scheduling policy based on urgent transaction is suggested to manage the exception occurred during the distributed processing. This scheduling policy is called multi-level priotiry scheduling (MPLS). Based on three features and scheduling policy, we describe a direction to manage a dynamic transaction processing in distributed real-time systems.

In a loosely-coupled distributed database server system, a server failure and/or a communication failure can be masked by a resiliency mechanism. Recognizing that a distributed transaction executes at several servers during its lifetime, we propose a resiliency mechanism which allows continuous transaction processing in distributed database server systems in the presence of a server failure. The resiliency mechanism for transaction processing is achieved by keeping redundant information using a primary/backup approach. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the performance improvement opportunities with the resiliency mechanism and to present the design of the proposed system.

This paper proposes a Distributed Transaction models based on the multimedia framework (MPEG-21) in digital convergence environment. Digital media market is growing up rapidly according to the extension of internet and universality of multimedia contents. So, importance of the effective management with the production and distribution of produced multimedia contents is becoming larger. For effective management of multimedia contents, the multimedia contents which are represented with different standard each other can be processed adaptively in the variable network environment. A free compatibility among the different terminals and standards are the essential particular should be offered for the digital convergence environment. A multimedia framework supports this compatibility and various multimedia services. In this paper, the Distributed Transaction models that multimedia contents can be circulated among the individual users safely and freely are proposed and the relation technologies are described.

As new applications of cloud data management system (CDMS) such as online games, cooperation edit, social network, and so on, are increasing, transaction processing capabilities for CDMS are required. Several transaction processing methods for cloud data management system (CDMS) have been proposed. However, existing transaction processing methods have some problems. Some of them provide limited transaction processing capabilities. Some of them are hard to be integrated with existing CDMSs. In this paper, we proposed a new concurrency control method to support transaction processing capability for CDMS to solve these problems. The proposed method was designed and implemented based on Spark, an in-memory distributed processing framework. It uses RDD (Resilient Distributed Dataset) model to provide fault tolerant to data in the main memory. In our proposed method, database stored in CDMS is loaded to main memory managed by Spark. The loaded data set is then transformed to RDD. In addition, we proposed a multi-version concurrency control method through immutable characteristics of RDD. Finally, we performed experiments to show the feasibility of the proposed method.

In this paper, we present a new checkpointing algorithm to preserve the consistency of resources in distributed transaction processing systems, and the error recovery algorithms to recover form the failure. In comparison with the existed algorithms, the checkpointing algorithm proposed in this paper can minimize the interference of the distributed transaction and the stroage cost during checkpointing, and does not need the extra message to make th checkpoint. Also we show that the error recovery algorithms prevent the distributed transaction with a partial fault from spreading the fault, which calls domnio-effect and prevent them from restarting cyclically. And we describe the correctness and the performane of the proposed algorithms.

This paper design and implements a synchronized agent mechanism that be able to synchronize SFT (Slow Frequency Transaction) data among e-business processes in distributed environment. This synchronized agent system is adopted to use mobile agent to guarantee the interoperability of the distributed processes and to solve some problems at the client/server architecture and proposes a policy to synchronize data of e-business processes on the any platforms of distributed heterogeneous systems. The proposed synchronization policy is based on the time-stamp transaction with the system priority on the unicasting transportation.

In distributed mobile systems, the congestion control and disconnection problems are current major issues. This paper proposes a grouping-based fuzzy reference streaming method to improve the performance of systems supporting distributed mobile transactions. The proposed method resolves transaction requests issued by mobile clients using the GS interface. In the paper disconnection problems are resolved efficiently using transaction read and update for improved streaming service. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the other existing methods significantly.

As real-time database systems are extended to the distributed computing environment, the need to apply the existing real-time concurrency control schemes to the distributed computing environment has been made. In this paper we propose an efficient concurrency control scheme for distributed real-time database system. Our proposed scheme guarantees a transaction to commit at its maximum, reduces the restart of a transaction that is on the prepared commit phase, and minimizes the time of the lock holding. This is because it raises the priority of the transaction that is on the prepared commit phase in the distributed real-time computing environment. In addition, it reduces the waiting time of a transaction that owns borrowed data and improves the performance of the system, as a result of lending the data that the transaction with the raised priority holds. We compare the proposed scheme with DO2PL_PA(Distributed Optimistic Two-Phase Locking) and MIRROR(Managing Isolation in Replicated Real-time Object Repositories) protocol in terms of the arrival rate of transactions, the size of transactions, the write probability of transactions, and the replication degree of data in a firm-deadline real-time database system based on two-phase commit protocol. It is shown through the performance evaluation that our scheme outperforms the existing schemes.
