Editing any version at any time: a consistency maintenance mechanism in Internet-based collaborative environments
Liyin Xue, Mehmet Ali Orgun, Kang Zhang · 2003
This paper investigates the multi-version approach to consistency maintenance in Internet-based real-time collaborative editing systems. It proposes a new multi-versioning scheme that is able to preserve individual users' intentions while guaranteeing convergent document states. The scheme has been implemented in Java in a prototype called POLO.
