Abstract

A transaction creates a wait for dependency on a version in a main memory database implementing a multi-version concurrency control scheme. The wait for dependency allows the transaction to update the version while other transactions are reading the version. The multi-version concurrency control scheme also allows commit dependencies to be implementing concurrently with wait for dependencies. Commit dependencies allow a transaction to read an updated version before the updated version is committed.
