Distributed Transactional Systems Cannot Be Fast

Rachid Guerraoui, Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Jingjing Wang, Panagiota Fatourou

We prove that no fully transactional system can provide fast read transactions (including read-only ones that are considered the most frequent in practice). Specifically, to achieve fast read transactions, the system has to give up support of transactions ...

Fast General Distributed Transactions with Opacity

Aleksandar Dragojevic, Stanko Novakovic, Georgios Chatzopoulos

Transactions can simplify distributed applications by hiding data distribution, concurrency, and failures from the application developer. Ideally the developer would see the abstraction of a single large machine that runs transactions sequentially and neve ...

Wren: Nonblocking Reads in a Partitioned Transactional Causally Consistent Data Store

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

Transactional Causal Consistency (TCC) extends causal consistency, the strongest consistency model compatible with availability, with interactive read-write transactions, and is therefore particularly appealing for geo-replicated platforms. This paper pres ...

Monotonic Prefix Consistency in Distributed Systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Jad Hamza

We study the issue of data consistency in distributed systems. Specifically, we consider a distributed system that replicates its data at multiple sites, which is prone to partitions, and which is assumed to be available (in the sense that queries are alwa ...

Reliability Mechanisms for Controllers in Real-Time Cyber-Physical Systems

Maaz Mashood Mohiuddin

Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are real-world processes that are controlled by computer algorithms. We consider CPSs where a centralized, software-based controller maintains the process in a desired state by exchanging measurements and setpoints with proces ...

Distributed Transactions: Dissecting the Nightmare

Rachid Guerraoui, Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Jingjing Wang

Many distributed storage systems are transactional and a lot of work has been devoted to optimizing their performance, especially the performance of read-only transactions that are considered the most frequent in practice. Yet, the results obtained so far ...

The Complexity of Reliable and Secure Distributed Transactions

Jingjing Wang

The use of transactions in distributed systems dates back to the 70's. The last decade has also seen the proliferation of transactional systems. In the existing transactional systems, many protocols employ a centralized approach in executing a distributed ...

Quarts: Quick Agreement for Real-Time Control Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Simon Bliudze, Wajeb Saab

Real-time control systems (RTCSs) tolerate delay and crash faults by replicating the controller. Each replica computes and issues setpoints to actuators over a network that might drop or delay messages. Hence, the actuators might receive an inconsistent se ...
