A comprehensive evaluation model for BASE transaction processing

Transaction processing has been thought to be not suitable for cloud computing. The primary reason is that the data integrity principle is much relaxed from the traditional ACID. This new principle is known as BASE. In order to deploy transaction processing systems over cloud environments, we need to reveal the characteristics of transaction behavior under the BASE principle. The paper proposes a CPN (Colored Petri Net) based comprehensive integrity evaluation model with high modularity, which can easily be customized, or enhanced for diverse application domains and cloud environments.
