Real-time commit protocol for distributed real-time database systems

This paper proposes a new commit protocol. The basic idea is that the commit procedures for correctness rely on the results of remote transactions that are timely completed. We call the new protocol real-time commit protocol (RCP). RCP satisfies both the correct and the timely completion and produces several desirable effects for fast computing like the elimination of the voting phase and the reduction of the number of messages in the two phase commit protocol.
