Algorithmic Aspects of Multiversion Concurrency Control
Summary: Introduce MVCSR, a conflict-based multiversion serializability notion and relate it to single-version CSR; prove deciding on-line schedulability (OLS) of schedule sets is NP-complete. Show recognizing maximal OLS (MVSR/MVCSR) subsets is intractable and give a general MVCSR algorithmic framework. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
