Abstract

Concurrent access to a global data repository is provided, while minimizing the number of locks acquired to provide the concurrent access. One or more resources within the global data repository have predefined relationships with one or more other resources of the repository. Thus, locking for a particular resource is based on its relationship with one or more other resources of the repository.
