HAWK: A Workload-driven Hierarchical Deadlock Detection Approach in Distributed Database System
Summary: HAWK builds a dynamic hierarchical detection tree from a workload-predicted access graph to partition detection into non-overlapping zones. SCC-cut + greedy graph-cut and periodic sampling adapt to workload changes, reducing time/communication overhead and shortening deadlock duration while improving throughput.
