A survey on data and transaction management in mobile databases
The popularity of the Mobile Database is increasing day by day as people need
information even on the move in the fast changing world. This database
technology permits employees using mobile devices to connect to their corporate
networks, hoard the needed data, work in the disconnected mode and reconnect to
the network to synchronize with the corporate database. In this scenario, the
data is being moved closer to the applications in order to improve the
performance and autonomy. This leads to many interesting problems in mobile
database research and Mobile Database has become a fertile land for many
researchers. In this paper a survey is presented on data and Transaction
management in Mobile Databases from the year 2000 onwards. The survey focuses
on the complete study on the various types of Architectures used in Mobile
databases and Mobile Transaction Models. It also addresses the data management
issues namely Replication and Caching strategies and the transaction management
functionalities such as Concurrency Control and Commit protocols,
Synchronization, Query Processing, Recovery and Security. It also provides
Research Directions in Mobile databases.Comment: 20 Pages; International Journal of Database Management Systems
