Cache Consistency and Concurrency Control in a Client/Server DBMS Architecture
Summary: Empirical, simulator-based comparison of five inter-transaction cache consistency algorithms (2PL, certification, callback locking, no-wait, no-wait with notification) in a client/server DBMS. Finds 2PL and callback locking dominate under bottlenecks; callback locking outperforms 2PL with moderate/high locality; no-wait variants win only with zero network delay and fast server, and clarifies intra- vs inter-transaction caching across workloads.
