Caching of frequently accessed data has been shown to be a useful technique for reducing congestion on the narrow bandwidth of wireless channels. However, traditional client/server strategies for supporting transactional cache consistency, which require extensive communications between a client and a server, are not appropriate in a wireless mobile database. This paper proposes two, simple but effective, transactional cache consistency protocols for mobile read-only transactions by utilizing the broadcast-based solutions for the problem of invalidating caches. The novelty of our approach is that the consistency check on accessed data and the commitment protocol are implemented in a truly distributed fashion as an integral part of cache invalidation process. The applicability of proposed techniques is also examined by an analytical study.
