SMILES project has one new master

SMILES project has one new master

Vítor Enes Duarte, a SMILES researcher, defended his master’s thesis last week and received a grade of 18. With the thesis “Efficient Synchronization of State-based CRDTs”, aimed to reduce the amount of information needed to synchronize CRDTs, data structures that can be replicated across multiple computers in a network. With this study, the author has developed techniques that can be easily applied to existing delta-state-based implementations of CRDTs in industry, such as in Akka, a toolkit for building highly concurrent,…
