Funny thing is, we have had a easy to understand CRDT datastructure and ecosystem for years.
The semantic web.
If you ignore the closed world stuff and only use open world semantics RDF becomes a GSet representing a graph.
A pretty neat workable representation.
Trivial to implement.
- kaoD 9y agoI don't see how. Care to elaborate what is conflict-free and replicated in the semantic web?
- skrebbel 9y agoNothing is, he's just trolling.
- j-pb 9y agoI'm not actually. Open world semantics means that you can never assume that a fact that hasn't been explicitly given doesn't happen to be on some server that is just temporarily unreachable. If you combine this with a monotonic query language and inference engine, which never retracts facts, you get a GSet with pretty powerfull operations. You can even arbitrarily cache facts without worry of conflicts.
