Abstract
In this paper, we present an open and safe nested transaction model and discuss the crash recovery issues. We introduce the notion of a recovery point subtransaction in a nested transaction tree. We introduce prewrite operations to increase concurrency. Our model is open and safe as prewrites allow early reads (before database writes on disk) without cascading aborts. The systems restart and buffer management operations are modeled as nested transactions to exploit possible concurrency during restart. Our model is useful in handling long-duration transactions.
