This paper discusses the motivation and the challenges for providing a systematic and transparent approach for dealing with cross-system consistency. Our high level goal is to provide a way to avoid violations of causality when multiple systems interact, while (a) avoiding the redesign of existing systems, (b) minimizing the overhead, and (c) requiring as little developer input as possible.
