Abstract:
Hypergraphical structures provide a natural mathematical way to represent the richness of diversified data and complex relationships in hierarchical, relational, navigational, and semi-structured settings, e.g., bibliographic paper submissions, mHealth, and social media applications. These applications operate in distributed environments with a requirement of availability while coping with high network latencies. Replication is the commonly used approach to achieve a high degree of availability, facilitating local query processing. However, replication requires expensive (and often infeasible) concurrency control to ensure consistency. In this work, we specify the well-formed % higher-order recursively-defined mutable Hypergraphs as a Conflict-free Replicated Data Type (HgCRDT), which is a commutative replication-based approach expressed in terms of two 2P-Sets, the latter comprising mutable hyperedges.
