Summary:The Camelot Project has constructed a distributed transaction
facility intended to support widespread use of transaction processing
techniques. Camelot executes on a variety of uni- and multiprocessors on
top of the Unix-compatible, Mach operating system. The authors describe
the design decisions that make Camelot a flexible, easy-to-use system
and briefly describe Camelot's programming interfaces and algorithms.
They discuss two applications of Camelot: an implementation of
distributed ET-1 and a graphical room reservation system that uses the X
Window Manager
