| Abstract | In a recent paper by Hellerstein [15], a tight relationship was conjectured between the number of strata of a $Datalog^{¬}$ program and the number of "coordination stages" required for its distributed computation. Indeed, Ameloot et al. [9] showed that a query can be computed by a coordination-free relational transducer network iff it is monotone, thus answering in the affirmative a variant of Hellerstein's CALM conjecture, based on a particular definition of coordination-free computation. In this paper, we present three additional models for declarative networking. In these variants, relational transducers have limited access to the way data is distributed. This variation allows transducer networks to compute more queries in a coordination-free manner: e.g., a transducer can check whether a ground atom A over the input schema is in the "scope" of the local node, and then send either A or ¬A to other nodes. We show the surprising result that the query given by the well-founded semantics of the unstratifiable win-move program is coordination-free in some of the models we consider. We also show that the original transducer network model [9] and our variants form a strict hierarchy of classes of coordination-free queries. Finally, we identify different syntactic fragments of Datalog∀¬¬, called semi-monotone programs, which can be used as declarative network programming languages, whose distributed computation is guaranteed to be eventually consistent and coordination-free. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
