Concurrency control in real-time databases by dynamic adjustment of serialization order

A new concurrency control algorithm for real-time database systems is proposed, by which real-time scheduling and concurrency control can be integrated. The algorithm is founded on a priority-based locking mechanism to support time-critical scheduling by adjusting the serialization order dynamically in favor of high priority transactions. Furthermore, it does not assume any knowledge about the data requirements or execution time of each transaction, making the algorithm very practical
