Real-time Database Systems: An Overview of System Characteristics and Issues

  • Chapter
Real-Time Database Systems

Part of the book series: The International Series in Engineering and Computer Science ((SECS,volume 593))

Summary

In this edited book, we divide all important design issues of RTDBS into six parts. Part I is focused on the basic concepts of RTDBS and the clarification their mis-concepts. Part II discussed one of the most important issues in the design of RTDBS: concurrency control. Other issues related to the management of the systems are included in Part III. Part IV addresses real-time active issues, such as triggered transactions. Part V reports the research findings in distributed and mobile real-time database systems. Part VI is for prototype and future work.
