The consistency of data in central databases is normally implemented by using the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability) properties of a DBMS (Data Base Management System). However, it is not possible to use the ACID properties of a DBMS if distributed and/or mobile databases are involved and at the same time, the availability of data also has to be optimized. To overcome this problem we will in this paper use so called relaxed ACID properties across different locations/DBMS systems. The objective of designing relaxed ACID properties across different database locations is that the users can trust the data they use even if the distributed database is temporarily inconsistent.
