Chapter 7 in Transaction Management, 1998, pp 132-155 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The functions performed through a TPM have been explained in Chapter 6 using the example of ACMS. However, one of the crucial questions efficient managers should ask themselves is: what are my alternatives? Precisely, what may be the alternatives in regard to TPRs available as commodity software?
