Performance Evaluation of Two Concurrency Control Mechanisms in a Distributed Database System

Summary: Direct comparison of SDD-1 and Dynamic Timestamping via simulation, focusing on protocol sync delays and transaction latency. Regression links I/O and comm delays; tests exponential/erlang fits for delay distributions. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
