The Synchronization Architecture Map

From Lamport timestamps and Vector Clocks to Operational Transformation matrices, join-semilattices, and Yjs RGA sequence CRDTs.

TRACK_01

Causality & Logical Clocks

Lamport timestamps, Vector clocks, and partial vs total causal ordering in distributed systems.

1 topics

Why physical wall clocks drift in distributed networks, and how logical vector clocks track causal happens-before relationships.

TRACK_02

Centralized serialization matrices, transformation functions, and Google Docs concurrency.

1 topics

How Google Docs adjusts character indices of concurrent text operations against a central serialization server.

TRACK_03

Join-semilattices, Strong Eventual Consistency, and Commutative/Associative/Idempotent merges.

1 topics

The mathematical proof of Strong Eventual Consistency using Commutative, Associative, and Idempotent merge functions.

TRACK_04

G-Counters, PN-Counters, Last-Write-Wins registers, and Observed-Removed (OR) Sets.

1 topics

Positive-Negative Counters, Last-Write-Wins registers, and Observed-Removed Sets (OR-Set).

TRACK_05

Replicated Growable Arrays (RGA), Yjs YATA, fractional indexing, and collaborative rich text.

1 topics

How modern collaborative editors (Yjs, Automerge, Figma) model rich text as linked trees of immutable character nodes with fractional indices.
