Abstract
ACTA is a comprehensive transaction framework that facilitates the formal
description of properties of extended transaction models.
Specifically, using ACTA, one can specify and reason about
(1) the effects of transactions on objects and
(2) the interactions between transactions.
This paper focuses on one of the building blocks of ACTA, namely delegation.
A transaction ti can delegate to tj the
responsibility for committing or aborting an operation op.
Once this delegation occurs, it is as if tj performed op
and not ti.
We discuss how the notion of delegation is useful to capture the
interactions that take place in extended transactions.
