Topic

The research training group Weak Consistency investigates (weak) consistency notions for systems with replicated data. A particular focus is on system construction, providing methods that aid the programmer in building large scale systems on top of weakly consistent infrastructure. Our contributions range from design of novel data types to synchronization inference algorithms and consistency-aware proof systems.

The research training group is a joint effort of the projects:

  1. ADVENT (EU FP7-Young Explorers)
  2. SyncFree (EU FP7-Strep)
  3. R2M2 (DFG)
  4. SDPA (Fraunhofer ITWM)
