Abstract
We examine the problem of determining
whether a set of locked transactions, accessing
a distributed database, is guaranteed to produce
only serializable schedules. For a pair of
transactions we prove that this concurrency
control problem (which is polynomially solvable
for centralized databases) is in general coNP-complete.
We employ a new graph-theoretic technique
and provide an efficient test for the
special case of databases distributed between two sites only.
