The most commonly used concurrency protocol is the timestamp based protocol. This protocol
Lock-based protocols manage the order between the conflicting pairs among transactions at the
is created.
Every transaction has a timestamp associated with it, and the ordering is determined by the age
of
the transaction. A transaction created at 0002 clock time would be older than all other
transactions
that come after it. For example, any transaction 'y' entering the system at 0004 is two seconds
In addition, every data item is given the latest read and write-timestamp. This lets the system
know when the last ‘read and write’ operation was performed on the data item.

- During transaction execution, the updates are written to the log file.

- If the transaction fails before reaching its commit point, there is no need to undo any
operations because the transaction has not affected the database on disk in any way.
1. A transaction cannot change the database on disk until it reaches its commit point.
2. A transaction does not reach its commit point until all its update operations are recorded
in
the log file and the log file is force-written to disk.
- Recovery techniques based on deferred update are therefore known as
NO UNDO/REDO techniques. REDO is needed in case the system fails after a transaction
commits but before all its changes are recorded on disk. In this case, the transaction operations

1. Analysis: step identifies the dirty (updated) pages in the buffer and the set of
transactions active at the time of crash. The appropriate point in the log where redo
is to start is also determined.
2. Redo: necessary redo operations are applied.
3. Undo: log is scanned backwards and the operations of transactions active at the time of
crash are undone in reverse order.

For efficient recovery following tables are also stored in the log during checkpointing:
-Transaction table: Contains an entry for each active transaction, with information such as
transaction ID, transaction status and the LSN of the most recent log record for the transaction.
-Dirty Page table: Contains an entry for each dirty page in the buffer, which includes the page
