Download or read book Open Multithreaded Transactions written by Jörg Kienzle and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates how transactions can be integrated with concurrent object-oriented programming, and how transactions can be made available to an application programmer at the programming language level. The book gives a detailed overview of existing transaction models, and analyzes their suitability for concurrent programming languages. A new transaction model named "Open Multithreaded Transactions" is presented. It provides features for controlling and structuring not only access to objects, as usual in transaction systems, but also threads taking part in transactions. Integration with exception handling makes open multithreaded transactions ideal building blocks for fault-tolerant applications. The book also describes the design of an object-oriented framework providing the necessary run-time support for open multithreaded transactions. Procedural, object-oriented and aspect-oriented interfaces for the application programmer are presented. Programming examples include code in Ada, Java and AspectJ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sixth International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies, Ada- Europe 2001, took place in Leuven, Belgium, May 14-18, 2001. It was sponsored by Ada-Europe, the European federation of national Ada societies, in cooperation with ACM SIGAda, and it was organized by members of the K.U. Leuven and Ada- Belgium. This was the 21st consecutive year of Ada-Europe conferences and the sixth year of the conference focusing on the area of reliable software technologies. The use of software components in embedded systems is almost ubiquitous: planes fly by wire, train signalling systems are now computer based, mobile phones are digital devices, and biological, chemical, and manufacturing plants are controlled by software, to name only a few examples. Also other, non-embedded, mission-critical systems depend more and more upon software. For these products and processes, reliability is a key success factor, and often a safety-critical hard requirement. It is well known and has often been experienced that quality cannot be added to software as a mere afterthought. This also holds for reliability. Moreover, the reliability of a system is not due to and cannot be built upon a single technology. A wide range of approaches is needed, the most difficult issue being their purposeful integration. Goals of reliability must be precisely defined and included in the requirements, the development process must be controlled to achieve these goals, and sound development methods must be used to fulfill these non-functional requirements.

Download or read book Advances in Exception Handling Techniques written by Alexander Romanovsky and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-06-29 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern software systems are becoming more complex in many ways and have to cope with a growing number of abnormal situations which, in turn, are increasingly complex to handle. The most general way of dealing with these problems is by incorporating exception handling techniques in software design. In the past, various exception handling models and techniques have been proposed and many of them are part of practical languages and software composition technologies. This book is composed of five parts, which deal with topics related to exception handling in the context of programming language models, design methodologies, concurrent and distributed systems, applications and experiences, and large-scale systems such as database and workflow process mangagement systems. The 17 coherently written chapters by leading researchers competently address a wide range of issues in exception handling.

Download or read book Transactions on Aspect Oriented Software Development V written by and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-06-18 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The LNCS journal Transactions on Aspect-Oriented Software Development is devoted to all facets of aspect-oriented software development (AOSD) techniques in the context of all phases of the software life cycle, from requirements and design to implementation, maintenance and evolution. The focus of the journal is on approaches for systematic identification, modularization, representation and composition of crosscutting concerns, i.e., the aspects and evaluation of such approaches and their impact on improving quality attributes of software systems. This volume, the fifth in the Transactions on Aspect-Oriented Software Development series, contains three papers submitted through the regular channel, and three papers on the special focus area of aspects, dependencies and interactions. The first two papers concentrate on applications of AOSD to the fields of scheduling of web applications and operations research, respectively, while the third paper applies the technique of bisimulation to aspect-oriented languages. The special focus area on aspects, dependencies and interactions is introduced by the guest editors Ruzanna Chitchyan, Johan Fabry, Shmuel Katz, and Arend Rensink.

Download or read book Concurrency in Dependable Computing written by Paul Ezhilchelvan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concurrency in Dependable Computing focuses on concurrency related issues in the area of dependable computing. Failures of system components, be hardware units or software modules, can be viewed as undesirable events occurring concurrently with a set of normal system events. Achieving dependability therefore is closely related to, and also benefits from, concurrency theory and formalisms. This beneficial relationship appears to manifest into three strands of work. Application level structuring of concurrent activities. Concepts such as atomic actions, conversations, exception handling, view synchrony, etc., are useful in structuring concurrent activities so as to facilitate attempts at coping with the effects of component failures. Replication induced concurrency management. Replication is a widely used technique for achieving reliability. Replica management essentially involves ensuring that replicas perceive concurrent events identically. Application of concurrency formalisms for dependability assurance. Fault-tolerant algorithms are harder to verify than their fault-free counterparts due to the fact that the impact of component faults at each state need to be considered in addition to valid state transitions. CSP, Petri nets, CCS are useful tools to specify and verify fault-tolerant designs and protocols. Concurrency in Dependable Computing explores many significant issues in all three strands. To this end, it is composed as a collection of papers written by authors well-known in their respective areas of research. To ensure quality, the papers are reviewed by a panel of at least three experts in the relevant area.

Download or read book A Multi Threading Architecture for Multilevel Secure Transaction Processing written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A TCB and security kernel architecture for supporting multi-threaded, queue-driven transaction processing applications in a multilevel secure environment is presented. Our design exploits hardware security features of the Intel 80x86 processor family. Intel's CPU architecture provides hardware with two distinct descriptor tables. We use one of these in the usual way for process isolation. For each process, the descriptor table holds the descriptors of "system-low" segments, such as code segments, used by every thread in a process. We use the second table to hold descriptors for segments known to individual threads within the process. This allocation, together with an appropriately designed scheduling policy, permits us to avoid the full cost of process creation when only switching between threads of different security classes in the same process. Where large numbers of transactions are encountered on transaction queues, this approach has benefits over traditional multilevel systems.
