Object-Oriented Transaction Processing in the KeyKOS Microkernel
نویسندگان
چکیده
Three major technological directions in computer technology are transaction processing, object orientation, and microkernel operating systems. The KeyKOS operating system and the KeyTXF transaction processing system combine all three of these technologies. The design of KeyKOS directly provides operating system level objects on a microkernel base. In order to maintain the integrity of these objects, KeyKOS takes periodic checkpoints of the entire system. In addition, KeyKOS provides facilities for transaction processing which achieve very high transaction rates. Object oriented technology facilitates construction and reuse of transaction applications. This paper describes how these ideas are combined in the KeyKOS system.

The KeyKOS Nanokernel Architecture
The KeyKOS nanokernel is a capability-based object-oriented operating system that has been in production use since 1983. Its original implementation was motivated by the need to provide security, reliability, and 24-hour availability for applications on the Tymnet® hosts. Requirements included the ability to run multiple instantiations of several operating systems on a single hardware system. K...

متن کاملObject-Oriented Method for Automatic Extraction of Road from High Resolution Satellite Images
As the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. This processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...
متن کاملDeclarative Semantics in Object-Oriented Software Development - A Taxonomy and Survey
One of the modern paradigms to develop an application is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles in applications. In an application, we must distinguish between procedural semantics and declarative semantics for their implementation in a specific programming language. For the procedural semantics, we can write a ...
متن کاملCombining Object-oriented Systems and Open Transaction Processing
Atomic transactions are now a familiar paradigm for distributed programming and have been provided in a number of object-oriented languages. Much e ort has also been expended on developing open transaction processing systems which support distributed transactions involving multivendor database systems. This paper addresses a number of issues that arise in combining objectoriented distributed pr...
