  Transaction Processing
We use read_1 [x,v] to refer to a read operation executed by transaction 1, where the read value is v;  write_1[x,v] refers to a write operation executed by transaction 1 with value v.
One of the main objectives of a transaction processing system is controlling and coordinating the execution of a set of concurrent transactions accessing shared data and resources.
Note that transactions that were active when the failure occurs are considered aborted since their internal state is lost due to the failure.

 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.

 New paradigms for transaction processing
Whereas in the past, the operator of a transaction processing system acted in a programmed way as the interface between the world and the computer system, BPR has required such operators to make more independent decisions based on sources of data wider than that available from the traditional one function transaction processing system.
A transaction processing system which allows its operator to choose what task is done next as often as possible is thought better than one which restricts future actions based on past actions.
To add a new transaction type, a programmer develops the code, passes the code to the transaction processing monitor administrator who then installs the code and enables certain terminals to use the new transaction.

 Enterprise Java Community: Nuts and Bolts of Transaction Processing
Since the order capture and order process transaction is distributed across two components, the transaction context should be global and be propagated from the first component to the second along with the transfer of control.
Transaction context is an association between the transactional operations on the resources, and the components invoking the operations.
Transactional Object: A CORBA object that encapsulates or refers to persistent data, and whose behavior depends on whether or not its operations are invoked during a transaction.

 Business Transaction Processing System   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
Business transactions may have hierarchical relationships (such as the relationships between the business transaction represented by a check to the business transaction represented by a bank account).
The traditional transactions only cover a small part of the life of these transactions and multiple traditional transactions are often required in order to complete a single business transaction.
Often, the traditional transactions execute in different environments and it becomes difficult to connect all of the pieces back to the original customer need that started the whole process.

Transaction processing involves the round trip transfer of financial transaction data (for example, consumer credit card information), from a merchant's web site to a processing network (such as VeriSign), and thereafter completes the transfer of funds to the merchant.
To determine whether a transaction was processed during a time-out error, you can access the VeriSign Manager web site and check the transaction report.
