On the consistency problem in mobile distributed computing

Rachid Guerraoui, Corine Hari · 2002

This paper describes some preliminary steps towards defining a consistency criteria for mobile replicated systems using operational transformations. Our criterion lies between traditional strong criteria, preventing divergence, and traditional weak criteria, not enforcing any eventual form of convergence. We give a precise definition of our criterion and discuss its use to state the correctness and incorrectness of some existing practical algorithms.
