Abstract :
Distributed systems are expected to support mobile computations executed over a computer network of fixed and mobile hosts. The authors examine the requirements for structuring such mobile computations that access shared data in a database, argue that open-nesting can better facilitate these requirements, and propose an Open-Nested Transaction model in a mobile environment using the notion of Reporting Transactions and Co-Transactions
