Transaction Scheduling: From Conflicts to Runtime Conflicts
Summary: Proposes runtime-aware scheduling to minimize runtime conflicts in main-memory multicore OLTP, reframing partitioning from static conflict classes to conflict-minimizing execution. Shows NP-completeness, provides an efficient scheduler and proactive deferring for non-batched workloads, delivering up to 294% throughput gains on standard benchmarks.
