Abstract
Replicated data is stored redundantly at multiple sites so that it can be used even when some of the copies are not available due to site failures. Synchronization techniques for replicated data in distributed systems are required in order to increase the degree of concurrency and to reduce the possibility of transaction rollback. The author classifies different synchronization methods by underlying mechanisms and the type of information they use in ordering the operations. He also discusses different recovery strategies for distributed systems with replicated data.
