Nested Transactions with Multiple Commit Points: An Approach to the Structuring of Advanced Database Applications

Summary: Proposes nested transactions with multiple commit points for higher-level application programming. Separates units of work from their commit/backout sphere roles, enabling atomic/independent/mixed composition and greater generality than existing models. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
