	Transaction processing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Transaction processing allows multiple individual operations on a database to be linked together automatically as a single, indivisible transaction.
		Transaction processing guards against hardware and software errors that might leave a transaction partially completed, with a database left in an unknown, inconsistent state.
		Today a number of transaction processing systems are available that work at the inter-program level and which scale to large systems, including mainframes.

	[No title]
		However, when the transaction data files in the restore directory are identical to the files used in the previous session, tp_restore starts with the continuation log it identified in the previous session's.out file.
		TPF for VOS Releases 12.3.0 and 13.3.0 addresses the preceding problems as follows: o The minimum wait period always transpires before a transaction is aborted, thus eliminating the performance degradation that occurs when you do not set allow_deadlocks (the default behavior).
		Whenever a lock that some transaction is waiting for is released, all processes waiting for a lock in that file awaken and retry the I/O operation, which, in turn, tries again to acquire the lock.

	Shipment system including processing of document images - Patent 5168444
		The transaction processing facility includes appropriate storage for the document images, an image management facility, and a computer database of shipping transaction data, along with appropriate applications specifying the procedures and instructions for processing the shipping transaction data for such purposes as invoicing and record-keeping.
		The transaction processing station may sometimes be referred to as "central" in the sense that it processes document images from a plurality of remote stations or sources.
		This assures that after transmission to the central processing station, and during the active period of processing, the document images will always be retained in two separate stores--either the magnetic storage at the remote and central stations (prior to archiving) or the magnetic storage and optical storage at the central station (after archiving).

	Object Oriented Transaction Processing in the KeyKOS Microkernel
		This action causes all transactions to wait until the checkpoint completes, and is undesirable because it introduces a noticeable delay in transaction processing.
		Systems that use Transaction ID's must carry that ID in messages to entities that are involved in the transaction, such as databases and the transaction processing monitor.
		Often the Transaction ID is passed implicitly using an operating system level mechanism that is specific to transaction processing.

	Transactional Distributed Shared Memory
		My thesis is that the combination of transactions and distributed shared memory is feasible and useful for a certain class of distributed application, especially those applications which have concurrent access to data that must not be corrupted, and need caching to provide adequate performance.
		Transaction systems address the failure problem by ensuring that the sequence of actions within a transaction succeed or fail as a unit.
		Transaction systems may undo or redo the actions of partially completed transactions to simulate atomic execution in the presence of failures.

		Thirty years later, TPF is still the fastest transaction processing system available.

	ALCS transaction monitor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ALCS is a transaction processing monitor for the IBM System/3x0 and zSeries mainframes.
		It is a variant of TPF specially designed to provide all the benefits of TPF (very high speed, high volume, high availability transaction processing) but with the advantages such as easier integration into the data center offered by running on a standard IBM operating system platform.
		Whereas TPF runs as a standalone OS, ALCS is designed to run as an application on top of MVS/OS/390/z/OS.

	Transaction Processing Monitors
		If one of the transactions would cause balance requirements to be violated, the TP monitor therefore needs to reject one of the transactions.
		XA is critical to the construction of distributed transaction processing systems; it represents a standardized API by which transaction management software can communicate with a DBMS and achieve the
		They tend to suffer somewhat on the "consistency" side of things; several messages may be required to complete an overall transaction, and those messages will each tend to reflect the latest system state rather than consistently looking back to the state of the system at the time the transaction began to take place.

		Performance considerations may dictate setting KeepAlive to "Off" (the default is "On") or lowering the Timeout value from the default 300 seconds (5 minutes) in order to reduce the number of active ECBs on your system.

	Sabre Migrating Pricing App To HP NonStop - News by InformationWeek (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Sabre Holdings Corp. says it's begun to migrate its airfare- pricing application from its current home on an IBM mainframe to a Hewlett-Packard NonStop server.
		It's part of a four-year program to migrate airfare pricing, schedules, and seating availability from IBM's older transaction-processing facility to an open system that uses a relational database.
		The company's existing mainframe system running IBM's decades-old transaction-processing facility is more difficult to program and more expensive to maintain.
