Transactional Information Systems: Theory, Algorithms, and the Practice of Concurrency Control and Recovery

Transactional Information Systems is the long-awaited, comprehensive work from leading scientists in the transaction processing field. Weikum and Vossen begin with a broad look at the role of transactional technology in today's economic andscientific endeavors, then delve into critical issues faced by all practitioners, presenting today's most effective techniques for controlling concurrent access by multiple clients, recovering from system failures, and coordinating distributed transactions. The authors emphasize formal models that are easily applied across fields, that promise to remain valid as current technologies evolve, and that lend themselves to generalization and extension in the development of new classes of network-centric, functionally rich applications. This book's purpose and achievement is the presentation of the foundations of transactional systems as well as the practical aspects of the field what will help you meet today's challenges. * Provides...

Gerhard Weikum is a Research Director (and until Aug 2007, had also been the Managing Director) at the Max Planck Institute for Computer Science (MPI)in Saarbruecken, Germany, where he is leading the [http://www.mpi-inf.mpg.de/departments/d5/ databases and information systems department] . His current research interests include distributed information systems, P2P computing, database performance optimization (automatic tuning) and self-organization (autonomic computing), and intelligent organization and search of semistructured information. He is also the Dean of the International Max Planck Research School for Computer Science (IMPRS-CS).

Earlier he held positions at Saarland University in Saarbrücken, Germany, at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, at MCC in Austin, Texas,and he was a visiting senior researcher at Microsoft Research in Redmond, Washington.He received his diploma and doctoral degrees from the [http://www.tu-darmstadt.de/ University of Darmstadt] , Germany.

He currently acts as the President of the [http://www.vldb.org VLDB Endowment] , which organizes the yearly "International Conference on Very Large Databases", one of the most reputable scientific conferences for researchers in the area of database research.

In 2005 the Association for Computing Machinery appointed Gerhard Weikum a Fellow. The appointment as a [http://fellows.acm.org/homepage.cfm Fellow] is one of the highest honors of the ACM. Weikum has been honored for his groundbreaking research in the fields of databases and information systems, in particular for his contributions to improve the reliability and the performance of large-scale, distributed information systems.

The circle of fellows is dominated by outstanding researchers from US elite educational institutions, such as Stanford, Berkeley, or CMU. Since 1993, seven German researchers have been appointed ACM Fellows.
