Models for Studying Concurrency Control Performance: Alternatives and Implications

Summary: Critically evaluates modeling assumptions in prior concurrency-control performance studies using a complete database-environment model. Compares three CC approaches across varied modeling assumptions to explain conflicting results and assesses realism for real DB systems. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
