Performance analysis of mixtures of fixed and mobile transactions over wireless computing environments
thesis
posted on 2018-11-16, 17:03 authored by Ahmad H. Al-QeremAs technological advances are made in software and hardware, the feasibility of
accessing information "any time, anywhere" is becoming a reality. In a mobile
computing environment, a potentially large number of mobile and fixed users may
simultaneously access shared data; therefore, there is a need to provide a means to
allow concurrent management of transactions. Specific characteristics of mobile
environments make traditional transaction management techniques no longer
appropriate. This is due to a fact that the ACID properties of transactions are not
simply followed, in particular the atomicity property. Thus, transaction management models adopting weaker forms of atomicity are needed.
In the first part of this thesis, a performance evaluation of three common
execution strategies for mobile transactions, the mobile host strategy (MHS), the
fixed host strategy (FHS), and the combined host strategy (CHS), is conducted. [Continues.]
