A Review of Locking Protocols for Concurrency Control in Parallel Databases
Abstract: In modern database systems, many transactions may run at the same time. When several users try to access the same data or update the data simultaneously, then it creates a problem such as inconsistency data, lost updates or misinformation and may lead to conflicts between the transactions and deadlocks. To avoid these types of issues and maintain the correctness of the database, concurrency control protocols are mainly used. This paper …

Lyapunov-Stable Adaptive Fractional-Order Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Control for Robust Anti-Lock Braking Under Uncertain Road Adhesion Conditions
Abstract: This paper proposes a Lyapunov-stable Adaptive Fractional-Order Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Controller (FO-IT2FLC) for robust anti-lock braking system (ABS) control under nonlinear vehicle dynamics and uncertain road adhesion conditions. The proposed framework integrates fractional-order error dynamics to capture memory-dependent tire–road interaction, interval Type-2 fuzzy inference to model uncertainty via footprint-of-uncertainty representation, and a Lyapunov-based adaptive learning mechanism for real-time parameter tuning. A rigorous stability proof guarantees boundedness of all closed-loop …
