Process Locking: A Protocol based on Ordered Shared Locks for the Execution of Transactional Processes
Summary: Proposes Process Locking: a dynamic scheduler using ordered shared locks to enforce atomicity and isolation at the transactional-process level, accounting for process structure, failure handling, and non‑compensable steps. Boosts concurrency and cuts cost by permitting cascading aborts for simple/short processes but preventing them for complex/long‑running ones, enabling fault‑tolerant interleavings beyond object-level S/X locks.
