 Transaction processing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer science, a transaction is a group of logical operations that must all succeed or fail as a group.
They do this by making copies of the data in question and then running the operations on the copied data.
Client-server computing embraced similar principles in the 1980s with mixed success.

 Transaction Processing
Transaction processing [1,3] is an important application of computer technology.
  One of the primary goals of a transaction processing system is to allow several users to interact with the data in the system simultaneously while preserving the illusion that each user is executing alone.
  This can be accomplished by requiring that transactions save the before-image of each object on nonvolatile storage before performing a write operation on that object.

 New paradigms for transaction processing
Whereas in the past, the operator of a transaction processing system acted in a programmed way as the interface between the world and the computer system, BPR has required such operators to make more independent decisions based on sources of data wider than that available from the traditional one function transaction processing system.
Another characteristic feature of transaction processing systems is the degree to which operators and the computer system can operate independently.
The systems are often used as "new" transaction processing monitor or time sharing like systems and so often require a high level of synchronisation between the actions of operators and the computer system.

 Object Oriented Transaction Processing in the KeyKOS Microkernel
Three major technological directions in computer technology are transaction processing, object orientation, and microkernel operating systems.
The interface objects ensure that a database object is transaction protected even though the application instance may pass its capability to the CAIO on to other objects.
An Abort Transaction operation causes the CAIO to discard the LEQ and release the database locks.

The work flow component of the system should allow the rules that define sequence of steps (dependencies) and the rules that define the processing to be performed at each step to be easily modified by the users.
Accounting information is only one type of information to be collected by the work flow processing.
This often involves review of historical work levels and/or the results of Work Plans from "upstream" processing areas that generate work for this processing area.

 Transaction Processing - Computerworld
Today, the problems of distributing transactions on the Web are similar to the problems of distributing them on systems with disparate data tables spanning multiple tape and disk drives.
As a result, extending TP capabilities to the Internet is often as easy as building the interface and business logic for an application on an existing system.
And you could do a relational database without TP, but you would lose one of the benefits of having a relational database: the ability to update multiple tables to reflect the completion of a transaction.

 15 Seconds : Transaction Processing in ADO.NET 2.0
If your implementation context was a single database, you could instantiate an instance of one of the IDBTransaction objects, attach it to your connection, process what you wanted, and either commit or rollback depending on the results.
Basically, I created a query which whacked and entire table, wrapped it in a transaction and ensured that it wouldn't commit.
This example is more in line with the earlier version of ADO.NET's transaction processing, namely, if everything works then commit, else rollback.

 Transaction Processing Performance Council
What little performance information is available from these individual products is rendered less effective by distribution of processing across many software layers in many places on the network of the enterprise.
Therefore, I would suggest that performance analysis is a very necessary requirement because performance levels cannot be guaranteed by independent vendors as the computing environment is scaled up to meet greater business demand.
This, in turn, creates longer execution paths to process and greater memory consumption.

Citation:  Bettina Kemme, Fernando Pedone, Gustavo Alonso, Schiper Schiper, Matthias Wiesmann, "Using Optimistic Atomic Broadcast in Transaction Processing Systems," IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering, vol. 15,  no. 4,  pp.
Atomic broadcast primitives are often proposed as a mechanism to allow fault-tolerant cooperation between sites in a distributed system.
Recently, a new approach has been proposed for atomic broadcast which, based on optimistic assumptions about the communication system, reduces the average delay for message delivery to the application.
