The Homeostasis Protocol: Avoiding Transaction Coordination Through Program Analysis
Summary: Homeostasis Protocol enables strong consistency with minimal coordination via automated program analysis that bounds inconsistency and derives inter-site treaties. Prototype and benchmarks show reduced communication and improved throughput under workload-optimized treaties. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
