Data Base Recovery At Cmic

Summary: CMIC recovery fuses mass-storage B-tree updates with an audit trail to preserve addressability during updates. Failure uses a hot-start via a B-tree walk and trail replay after the last recovery point; audit trail updated first, with deadlock costs for rollback discussed.
