IBM researchers: C. Mohan, Don Haderle, Bruce Lindsay, Hamid Pirahesh, Peter Schwarz

Where the work was done: IBM Almaden Research Center, Santa Teresa Lab

What we accomplished: ARIES provides a simple and efficient method to support partial rollbacks of transactions, fine granularity (e.g. record) locking, and recovery using write-ahead logging.
