Sinopsis
This book presents a highly efficient, mostly deadlock-free method for multiple users to concurrently search, insert, and delete data from a B-tree database structure. While some concurrent methods for manipulating B-trees already existed, such as the Lehman-Yao algorithm, they suffered severe drawbacks. The approach presented here, based on an elegant mathematical proof method, allows nearly all locking to be localized to a single level of the B-tree. Additionally, the method introduces a novel way of merging nodes, which also helps avoid the tree becoming imbalanced after many deletions. The result is a significant improvement in concurrency, allowing multiple users to access and manipulate the database much more quickly and efficiently than with previous methods. This book is a valuable resource for database system designers, researchers, and students seeking efficient and reliable concurrent database access techniques. Its approach has practical significance for the design of highly scalable database systems.

Excerpt from A Symmetric Concurrent B-Tree Algorithm
Etree usually runs in three stages: a descent through the tree to a leaf node, an Operation on the leaf node that either checks for the existence of a key, adds a key, or removes a key (for search, insert, and delete, respectively), and an optional ascent during which the tree is restructured in order to rebalance it. It is also possible to restructure the tree during the descent, as described in [guse78]. Restructuring is done by splitting a single node into two neighboring ones and by merging neighboring nodes into one. The execution of an entire action takes time logarithmic in the number of keys stored in the structure.

Excerpt from A Symmetric Concurrent B-Tree Algorithm
We have presented a deadlock-free concurrent B-tree algorithm supporting search, insert, and delete which employs less locking than any other algorithm that treats deletions symmetrically with insertions. To verify the algorithm, we use a correctness criterion based on the semantics of the dictionary adt. This criterion permits executions that would not be considered correct in the model of uninterpreted reads and writes. Simulation has shown that the algorithm is capable of achieving much better concurrency than the earliest (and still most widely used) concurrent B-tree algorithms that employ much exclusive locking high in the tree. It performs at least as well as other algorithms which also try to avoid using exclusive locks, and performs significantly better than these in trees containing a small number (e.g.
