Popis: | Given a distributed system with several shared objects and many processes concurrently updating and reading them, it is convenient that the system achieves convergence on the value of these objects. Such property can be guaranteed depending on the consistency model being employed. Causal Consistency is a weak consistency model that is easy and cheap to implement. However, due to the lack of real-time considerations, this model cannot offer convergence. A solution for overcoming that problem is to include time aspects within the framework of the model. This is the aim of Timed Causal Consistency. |
