Adaptive Load Control in Transaction Processing Systems
Summary: Prevents transaction-system thrashing by adaptively regulating the upper bound on concurrent transactions. Proposes two workload-aware adjustment algorithms that track changing workload conditions and compares their behavior via simulation. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
