Recently, there have been many indexing schemes for multimedia data such as image, video data. But recent database applications, for example data mining and multimedia database, are required to support multi-user environment. In order for indexing schemes to be useful in multi-user environment, a concurrency control algorithm is required to handle it. So we propose a concurrency control algorithm that can be applied to CBF (cell-based filtering method), which uses the signature of the cell for alleviating the dimensional curse problem. In addition, we extend the SHORE storage system of Wisconsin university in order to handle high-dimensional data. This extended SHORE storage system provides conventional storage manager functions, guarantees the integrity of high-dimensional data and is flexible to the large scale of feature vectors for preventing the usage of large main memory. Finally, we implement the web-based image retrieval system by using the extended SHORE storage system. The key feature of this system is platform-independent access to the high-dimensional data as well as functionality of efficient content-based queries. Lastly. We evaluate an average response time of point query, range query and k-nearest query in terms of the number of threads.

The XML is well accepted in several different Web application areas. As soon as many users and applications work concurrently on the same collection of XML documents, isolating accesses and modifications of different transactions becomes an important issue. When an XML document correctly corresponds to the rules laid out in a DTD or XML schema, it is also said to be valid. The valid XML document's validity should be guaranteed after the document is updated. The validation method mentioned above, however, results in lower degree of concurrency. For getting higher degree of concurrency and minimizing the range of the XML document validity, a new validation method based on a specific locking method is required. In this paper we propose the sequence group validation method for minimizing the range of the XML document validity. We also propose the boundary locking method for isolating accesses and modifications of different transactions while supporting the valid XML document's validity. Finally, the results of some experiments show the validation and locking methods increase the degree of transaction concurrency.

The locking is the most widely-used concurrency control mechanism for guaranteeing logical consistency of a database where a number of transactions perform concurrently. In this Paper, we propose a new method for lock management appropriate in main-memory databases. Our method chooses the partition, a fixed-sized container for records. as a unit of locking. and directly keeps lock information within the Partition itself. These make our method enjoy the following advantages: (1) it has freedom in controlling of the trade-off between the system concurrency and the lock processing overhead by considering the characteristics of given target applications. (2) it enhances the overall system performance by eliminating the hashing overhead, a serious problem occurred in the traditional method.

This paper suggests an algorithm which can perform microoperations (MO'S) in parauel by considering concurrency of MO'S and resource allocation in horizontal microprogams. The algorithm can be obtained the result which reduces execution time and the space of control memory in microprogrammed digital systems by minimizing the total number of microinctructions by combining MO'5, which can be performed in paiallel by assigning a weight to each MO in the SLM (straight line microprogram), into a microinstruction.

In this paper, we propose a new phantom protection method for multi-dimensional index structures that uses multi-level grid technique. The proposed mechanism is independent of the types of multi-dimensional index structures, i.e., it can be applied to all types of index structures such as tree-based, file-based and hash-based index structures. Also, it achieves low development cost and high concurrency with low lock overhead. It is shown through various experiments that the proposed method outperforms existing phantom protection methods for multi-dimensional index structures.

In this study, we propose a scheduling analysis method of the Flexible management system using the transitive matrix. The Scheduling problem is a combination-optimization problem basically, and a complexity is increased exponentially for a size of the problem. To reduce an increase of a complexity, we define that the basic unit of concurrency (short BUC) is a set of control flows based on behavioral properties in the net. And we propose an algorithm to divide original system into some BUC. To sum up, we divide a petri net model of the Flexible management system Into the basic unit of concurrency through the division algorithm using the transitive matrix. Then we apply it to the division-scheduling algorithm to find an efficient scheduling. Finally, we verify its efficiency with an example.

Traditional concurrency control strategies for database system are inappropriate for mobile computing environments in which communication disconnection could occur frequently. The time available to access transactions may be extremely limited in mobile computing. In order to ensure that this time is utilized most effectively, the short-lived transactions must be a main stream of transactions. Service handoffs which occur due to communication disconnection, could degrade the performance of mobile transactions especially for short-lived transactions. Altruistic locking protocol is in its nature favorable to short-lived transactions since it applies the donation of locks to long-lived transactions as early as possible. Performance for short-lived transactions could be improved when we applied altruistic locking to mobile computing.

Mobile computing environment is subject to the constraints of bounded network bandwidth, frequently encountered disconnections, insufficient battery power, and system asymmetry. To meet these constraints and to gain high scalability, data broadcasting has been proposed on data transmission techniques. However, updates made to the database in any broadcast cycle are deferred to the next cycle in order to appear to mobile clients with lower data currency. The main goal of this paper is to enhance the transaction performance processing and database currency. The main approach involves decomposing the main broadcast cycle into a number of sub-cycles, where data items are broadcasted as they were originally sequenced in the main cycle while appearing in the most current versions. A concurrency control method AOCCRBSC is proposed to cope well with the cycle decomposition. The proposed method exploits predeclaration and adapts the AOCCRB method by customizing prefetching, back-off, and partial backward and forward validation techniques. As a result, more than one of the conflicting transactions is allowed to commit at the server in the same broadcast cycle which empowers the processing of both update and read-only transactions and improves data currency.
