Abstract
A parallel execution model for the update process of temporal database s is introduced in this paper, based on temporal parallelism and tempo ral independence. The parallel approach improves the through-put of ma ssive and complex updates of a multi-version schema system. The notion of temporal agents and its effect on parallelism is discussed, as wel l as different transaction modes. Several simulation results that pres ent the benefits of the parallel execution model are introduced and di scussed.
