Robustness against Read Committed for Transaction Templates
Summary: Proposes an expressive model of transaction programs to assess serializability under RC and defines the robustness problem. Gives tractable algorithms identifying larger RC-robust sets and shows throughput gains by promoting reads to updates. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
