Blind write

Last updated

In computing, a blind write, also known as a write-only transaction, occurs when a transaction writes a value without reading it. [1] In particular, a write wi(X) is said to be blind if it is not the last action of resource X and the following action on X is a write wj(X).[ citation needed ]

Blind writes can cause anomalies if multiple different blind write transactions are executed at the same time. [2]

Any view serializable schedule that is not conflict serializable must contain a blind write. [3]
