Transaction Management In An Object-Oriented Database System

Summary: ORION, an object-oriented DBMS, employs session-based and hypothetical abort-only transactions for its OO workloads. It extends locking theory for OO concurrency and uses conventional logging for recovery to address object-model locking complexity. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
