  > Conclusion ... monotonicity serves as the foundation of deterministic parallelism That's what the recent CALM Theorem [1] paper uses as the first theorem: > Monotonicity is the key property underlying the need for coordination to establish consistency, as captured in the CALM Theorem: > THEOREM 1. Consistency As Logical Monotonicity (CALM). A problem has a consistent, coordination-free distributed implementation if and only if it is monotonic. Unsurprisingly, this paper is reference 32 in CALM. Maybe I should check out some other papers referenced here... Thanks for the recommendation!
