Abstract

We define the problem of speculative processing in a replicated transactional system layered on top of an optimistic atomic broadcast service. A realistic model is considered in which transactions' read and write sets are not a priori known and transactions' data access patterns may vary depending on the observed snapshot. We formalize a set of correctness and optimality properties ensuring the minimality and completeness of the set of explored serialization orders within the replicated transactional system.
