Abstract

Grid Replica systems are gaining foothold in real end user systems, and are used in an increasing number of large scale projects. As such, many of the properties of these systems are well understood.

This paper how to handle some minor shortcomings of todays data replica systems, in respect to consistency management, and to their ability to handle derived data sets. We think that both features will allow replica systems to gain wider acceptance in the GIS community.
