CALL FOR PAPERS
FIRST INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON TRANSACTION MACHINE ARCHITECTURE (TMA-I)
Lake Arrowhead, California, September 25-28, 1988
Sponsored by Computer Society of the IEEE: TCMM, TCDE, TCVLSI
In Cooperation with ACM: SIGMOD
Supported by: Amdahl Corporation
& IBM Almaden Research Center
WORKSHOP EMPHASIS:
* Transaction Processing Architecture
* Experimental Analysis of Architectural Design Choices
* Stable Storage Techniques
* Main Memory Database Architectures
* High Performance Secondary Storage
* High Performance Communication
* Architectural Support for Recovery and Fault Tolerance
* Architectural Support for Online Reconfiguration
(Continuous Operation)
* Front-End vs Back-End Architectures
* Transaction Machine vs Database Machine Architectures
WORKSHOP BACKGROUND:
Recent technological developments have made possible high-speed
transaction processing systems (> 1000 transaction per second).
This workshop is intended to bring together computer system
architects, database system architects, transaction system architects,
designers, practitioners, and the research community to provide a
forum for in-depth discussions of architectures and architectural
support for achieving high-performance transaction processing
machines.
Participation is by invitation only. Each participant is expected to
actively contribute to the workshop by submitting either a position
paper, an extended abstract, or a full paper (approximately 5000 words).
Full papers accepted for presentation will be published in book form.
