Abstract

This paper presents a flexible consistency model, aggregating a parameterized representation common for all the models along the spectrum delimited by strong consistency and eventual consistency. A specific model, required by a particular Data Object, is derived from this representation by selecting and combining the proper consistency parameters values.
