Tradeoff Spectrum

System characteristic

Absolute consistency

High update rate

View consistency

Identical at all hosts

Determined by data received at each host

Dynamic data support

Low:limited by consistency protocol

High:limited only by available bandwidth

Network infrastructure requirements

Low latency, high reliability, limited variability

Heterogeneous network possible

Number of participants supported

Low

Potentially high
