Serialization or serialisation has several meanings:
- Serialization is publication or broadcasting in serial form.
- In computer databases, transaction serialization (serializability) is a technique of concurrency control in which concurrent database transactions are processed as though they had been issued one at a time. A serializable schedule over a set S of committed transactions is a schedule whose effect on any consistent database instance is guaranteed to be identical to that of some complete serial schedule over S. That is, the database instance that results from executing the given schedule is identical to the database instance that results from executing the transactions in some serial order.
- In computer science, serialization is the encoding of data structures as sequences of bytes.
