A transaction is an abstraction, which allows programmers to group a sequence of actions on the program into a logical, higher-level computation unit.
A transaction allows to group as one operation the verification of conditions (rd), the realisation of actions (put), and the update of the system logical state (get, put).
Manipulating transactions read all kinds of data in a database, and do a set of actions AS(T) = {A i |1 ≤ i ≤ h} to control the embedded system.
By having a better overview, companies can more effectively spot chokepoints and performance issues that may be potentially holding back transactions and other kinds of action.
