Not a “proper” reference but according to Wikipedia (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict-free_replicated_data_type https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict-free_replicated_dat...): > The CRDT concept was formally defined in 2011 by Marc Shapiro, Nuno Preguiça, Carlos Baquero and Marek Zawirski. Now, that’s not to say the gp wasn’t referring to using some of the CRDT concepts before they were defined collectively under that banner.
