Scalable Atomic Visibility with RAMP Transactions
Summary: Proposes Read Atomic (RA) isolation for partitioned transactions. RAMP delivers atomic visibility across partitions with synchronization-independence and partition-independent comms, using limited multi-versioning for snapshot reads and linear scaling to 100 servers.
