Guys you done a good job.
I would like to add one more point to your stuff.

In Call Transactions we can Handle Dependent Transactions Also.
In Session Method we can't Handle Dependent Transactions.

Answer / norty_n

Session method: it can handle small amount of data as well
as large amount of data.

It can handle multiple applications
simultaneously.

This method by default has log files. Log files
is used to store error records.

It can process the data fore ground and back
ground because it can handle small amount of data as well
as large amount of data.

It processes the database Asynchronously and
updates the database synchronously.

Call-transaction Method: with this method we can process
the data in fore ground only.

This method compatible small amount of data only.
user can create log file explicitly using BDCMSGCOLL
structure.

It processes the data and updates
synchronously.

It can handle one application at a time.
