[question] What is the source of the transaction mechanism? #53

After reading your design paper I started looking around, and got the feeling that your transactions are based on http://cs-www.cs.yale.edu/homes/dna/papers/calvin-sigmod12.pdf

Is this correct? :)

If so, have you seen http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol7/p329-mahmoud.pdf ?

It seems to be based on similar semantics, but is possibly simpler and more efficient..
