Abstract

An in-place reorganization of a database achieves reasonably accurate results for users during high-throughput concurrent usage of the database. The reorganization's movement of records across a user transaction's position within a scan of the database is tracked. The behavior of the user transaction is corrected to account for the movement of the records.
