| Abstract | In this paper, we present the design and the architecture of a parallel main memory database management system. We focus on concurrency control scheme and recovery. Our prototype is based on the concept of "database actors", an object-oriented data model well suited for parallelmanipulations. The storage sub system is built upon distributed Ram-files using SDDS (Scalable Distributed Data Structures) techniques. A nested transaction model is proposed and used to handle concurrency access and recovery. We have also proposed novel approach, based on wait-die, to implement a distributed deadlock prevention technique for our model of nested transactions. |
