Abstract :
Short term and long term transactions will become very important for both personal and cooperative work involving workflows that use ontologies of the Semantic Web. We describe a way to get around the CAP theorem (the impossibility of simultaneous consistency, availability, and the possibility of network partitioning) and the worst-case infinite delay for any distributed decision-making.
