Tóm tắt

This paper proposes a replica control method based on a fairly assigned variation of numerical data that has weak consistency for loosely coupled systems managed or used by different organizations. This method dynamically distributes the variation of numerical data to replicas according to their demands while achieving fairness among them. By assigning the variation, a replica can determine the possibility that processed update transactions will be aborted and can notify a client of the possibility even when network partitioning happens. In addition, fairly, assigning the variation of data to replicas enables the disadvantage among replicas caused by asynchronous update to be balanced among replicas. Fairness control for assigning the variation of data is performed by averaging the demands in the variation that are requested by the replicas. Simulation showed that our system can achieve extremely high fairness while processing update transactions at the maximum rate.
