The Free Termination Property of Queries over Time

Authors: Conor Power, Paraschos Koutris, and Joseph M. Hellerstein

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)

Abstract
Building on prior work on distributed databases and the CALM Theorem, we define and study the question of free termination: in the absence of distributed coordination, what query properties allow nodes in a distributed (database) system to unilaterally terminate execution even though they may receive additional data or messages in the future? This completeness question is complementary to the soundness questions studied in the CALM literature. We also develop a new model based on semiautomata that allows us to bridge from the relational transducer model of the CALM papers to algebraic models that are popular among software engineers (e.g. CRDTs) and of increasing interest to database theory for datalog extensions and incremental view maintenance.

A Tour of Gallifrey, a Language for Geodistributed Programming

Authors: Mae Milano, Rolph Recto, Tom Magrino, and Andrew C. Myers

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 136, 3rd Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2019)

Abstract
Programming efficient distributed, concurrent systems requires new abstractions that go beyond traditional sequential programming. But programmers already have trouble getting sequential code right, so simplicity is essential. The core problem is that low-latency, high-availability access to data requires replication of mutable state. Keeping replicas fully consistent is expensive, so the question is how to expose asynchronously replicated objects to programmers in a way that allows them to reason simply about their code. We propose an answer to this question in our ongoing work designing a new language, Gallifrey, which provides orthogonal replication through _restrictions_ with _merge strategies_, _contingencies_ for conflicts arising from concurrency, and _branches_, a novel concurrency control construct inspired by version control, to contain provisional behavior.
