The project aims to study, design and implement transaction replication mechanism suited to large scale distributed systems. In particular, the proposal intends to exploit partial replication techniques to provide strong consistency criteria whithout introducing significant synchronization and performance overheads. Although several replication frameworks consider the possibility for partial replication, the technique is usually justified by storage constraints and regulated by weak consistency criteria.
