Describe howthe two-phase commit protocol can be expanded to deal with a cohort site that uses a timestamp-ordered concurrency control.

What will be an ideal response?


The protocol described in the text assumes that cohorts use strict two-phase locking controls and hence that transactions are serialized in commit order. In order to achieve serialization in commit order, when a site using a time-stamp ordered concurrency control receives a prepare message for a transaction T, it checks to see whether T has a time-stamp later than all committed or prepared subtransactions. If so, it votes
ready; if not it votes aborting.
