Rapid advances in mobile computing and the availability of wireless communications will soon provide mobile users with the ability to access data regardless of the location of the user or of the data. SRA(Static Replica Allocation) that is traditional scheme has been used for the replication method on the server. This replicates the data on the replica server after a moving host has been transferred to the cell. This strategy is simple and can easily relocate data. However, if a mobile user does not exist in the cell, the replicated data can be deleted in order to maintain data consistency. In addition to, if the mobile host leaves from replicated cell, it is difficult to access data in terms of replication route. Therefore, this paper proposes a new method of relocation based on data consistency strategy called USRAC(User Selection Replica Allocation based on Consistency) and also analyzes access cost according to the moving rate of mobile users, according to the access rate of mobile hosts, and according to the number of cells of mobile users and mobile hosts.

The replication of data is used to increase its availability and to improve the performance of a system. The distributed database system has to maintain both the database consistency and the replica consistency. This paper proposes an algorithm which resolves the conflict of the operations by using the mechanism based on the structure that the replicas of each data item are hierarchically organized. Each update is propagated along the tree based on the fact that the root of each data item is the primary replica in partially replicated databases. The use of a hierarchy of data may eliminate useless propagation since the propagation can be done only to sites having the replicas. In consequence, the propagation delay of updates may be reduced. By using the timestamp and a compensating transaction, our algorithm resolves the non-serializability problem caused by the conflict of operations that can happen on the way of the update propagation due to the lazy propagation. This resolution also guarantees the data consistency.

A cache is used for optimization of query forwarding in the Grid database. To decrease network transmission cost, frequently used data is cached from meta database. Existing cache management method has a unbalanced resource problem, because it doesn't manage replicated data in each node. Also, it increases network cost by cache misses. In the case of data modification, if cache is not updated, queries can be transferred to wrong nodes and it can be occurred others nodes which have same cache. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the problems of existing method that are using unbalanced resource of replica and increasing network cost by cache misses. In this paper, cache management method for query forwarding optimization is proposed. The proposed method manages caches through cache manager. To optimize query forwarding, the cache manager makes caching data from lower loaded replicated node. The query processing cost and the network cost will decrease for the reducing of wrong query forwarding. The performance evaluation shows that proposed method performs better than the existing method.

Many failures are due to incorrectly programmed transactions and data entry errors. System failure causes the loss or corruption of the contents of volatile storage. Although global processing protects data values to detect direct or indirect information effluence, security environments are very important in the recovery management of heterogeneous systems. Although transaction can't control system fault, the restart for the system can cause information effluence by low bandwith. From various faults, it is not easy to maintain the consistency and security of data. This paper proposes recovery management protocols to assure global multilevel secure one-copy quasi-serializability in security environments of heterogeneous systems with replicated data and proves its correctness. The proposed secure protocols guarantee the reliability and security of system when the system fault is happened.

Group collaborative systems are recently emerging to support a group of users engaged in common tasks such as group decision making, engineering design, or collaborative writing. Simultaneously, as communications networks and distributed database systems become core underlying architecture of the organization, the need of collaborative systems are gaining more attentions from industry. In such collaborative systems, as the shared objects may evolve constantly or change for operational purposes, providing the users with synchronized and consistent views of the shared object and maintaining the consistency between shared object and replicated objects are important to improve the overall productivity. This paper provides an change management framework for the group collaborative systems to facilitate managing dependency relationships between shared objects and dependents, and coordinating change and propagation activities in distributed computing environments. Specifically, the framework adopts an object-oriented database paradigm and presents several object constructs capturing dependency management and change notification mechanisms. And the proposed framework accommodates both persistent dependents such as replicated data and transient dependents such as various user views in a single formalism. A prototype system is developed on a commercial object-oriented database management system called OBJECTSTORE using the C++ programming language.

We propose a new concurrency control algorithm for enhancing the degree of parallelism of the transactions in fully replicated databases designed to improve the availability and the reliability. The update transactions can be logically decomposed of a read-only transaction and a write-only transaction. In our algorithm, a set of read operations of an update transaction is treated as a read-only transaction and the read-only transaction reads data items in the site to which it is submitted. And a set of write operations of the update transaction is treated as a write-only transaction and it is submitted to all corresponding sites after the update transaction has been completed. By using the proposed update protocol, all write-only transactions can execute at all sites atomically. The proposed algorithm can have transactions execute concurrently at the site to which they are submitted and, after the completion of each transaction, the update protocol is performed for updating their data items and checking their serializability. Therefore, the degree of parallelism of the transactions can be improved. Especially, if the probability of conflict among transactions is low, we can expect the higher degree of their parallelism.

In the security environments of heterogeneous multidatabase systems, not only the existing local autonomy but also the security autonomy as a new constraint are required. From global aspects, transactions maintain consistent data value when they assure serializability. Also, secure properties must protect these transactions and data values to prevent direct or indirect information effluence. This paper proposes scheduling algorithm for global transactions to ensure multilevel secure one-copy quasi-serializability (MLS/1QSR) in security environments of multidatabase systems with replicated data and proves its correctness. The proposed algorithm does not violate security autonomy and globally guarantees MLS/1QSR without indirect information effluence in multidatabase systems.

Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems have become a popular medium through which to share huge amounts of data. On the basis of network topology, P2P systems are divided into three types: centralized, structured distribution, unstructured distribution. Unstructured P2P systems such as Gnutella are novel in the sense that they are extensible and reliable. However, as the number of nodes increases, unstructured P2P systems would suffer from the high complexity of search operations that have to scan the network to find the required data items. Efficient replication of data items can reduce the complexity, but it introduces another problem of maintaining consistency among replicated data items when each data item could be updated. In this paper, we propose a new update propagation algorithm that propagates an updated data item to all of its replica. The proposed algorithm can reduce the message transfer overhead by adopting the notion of timestamp and hybrid push/pull messaging.
