Abstract

A Distributed Real-time Active Database System reacts to the critical events occurred in the external environment by triggering of transactions. In this paper, the priority and deadline assignment to triggered transactions under two coupling modes, the deferred and immediate, in a DRTADBS is discussed. A new approach, the data state dependent (DSD) is proposed to assign criticality to the triggered transactions, respectively. In the DSD approach, the criticality of a triggered transaction is defined according to the state of the temporal data object which is responsible for its triggering. The objective of the DSD approach is to increase the number of commit achieved by the triggered transactions especially the more critical ones. The performance of these two approaches under the two coupling modes has been investigated. The results show that the DSD approach is more effective under the immediate coupling mode than under the deferred coupling mode due to the late creation of the triggered transactions under the deferred coupling mode.
