Abstract :
Consistency control is an important research field in CSCW. We present an improved algorithm of concurrency control based on operation transformation. Our fastAdOPT algorithm improves other algorithms in two ways: first, we improve the transformation efficiency by saving the original form of operations in a request log and by the special process of “intimate preceding” operations. Secondly, it can realize a natural interactive mode by not using the undo/redo operation
