Abstract
Based on XTC, we have redesigned, reimplemented, and reoptimized BrackitDB, a native XML DBMS (XDBMS). Inspired by “optimal” concurrency gained on XTC using the taDOM protocol, we applied an XML benchmark on BrackitDB running now on a substantially different computer platform. We evaluated important concurrency control scenarios again using taDOM and compared them against an MGL-protocol. We report on experiments and discuss important observations w.r.t. fine-grained parallelism on XML documents.
