Another aspect of the atomicity of occasions of experience is that they do not change.
Atomicity The actual entities, the occasions of experience, are logically atomic in the sense that an occasion of experience cannot be cut and separated into two other occasions of experience.
Database locks, process identifiers, and atomicity of database update transactions are all required of standard MUMPS implementations.
For proving the theorem above,first we should prove that the register is safe,next we should show that the register is regular,and then at the end we should show that the register does not allow for new/old inversion which proves the atomicity.
Furthermore,this total order is an execution of M only adds an order on operations that are overlapping in M. If there is no overlapping between a read and write operations, there is no difference between the regularity and atomicity.
Since atomicity (linearizability) is a local property, we can state that a set of SWMR regular registers behave atomically as soon as each of them satisfies the no new/old inversion property.
The atomicity of these elements is not specifically mentioned and it appears that they were actually taken to be continuous.
This kind of logical atomicity is perfectly compatible with indefinitely many spatio-temporal overlaps of occasions of experience.
This largely eliminates the need for read locks, and ensures the database maintains the ACID (atomicity, consistency, isolation, durability) principles in an efficient manner.
