  5. Photo-consistency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photo-consistency

    In computer vision, photo-consistency determines whether a given voxel is occupied. A voxel is considered to be photo consistent when its color appears to be similar to all the cameras that can see it. [ 1 ]

  6. Consistency model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistency_model

    Consistency models are used in distributed systems like distributed shared memory systems or distributed data stores (such as filesystems, databases, optimistic replication systems or web caching). Consistency is different from coherence, which occurs in systems that are cached or cache-less, and is consistency of data with respect to all ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACELC_theorem

    The tradeoff between availability, consistency and latency, as described by the PACELC theorem. In database theory, the PACELC theorem is an extension to the CAP theorem.It states that in case of network partitioning (P) in a distributed computer system, one has to choose between availability (A) and consistency (C) (as per the CAP theorem), but else (E), even when the system is running ...

  8. Consistency (database systems) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistency_(database_systems)

    The CAP theorem is based on three trade-offs, one of which is "atomic consistency" (shortened to "consistency" for the acronym), about which the authors note, "Discussing atomic consistency is somewhat different than talking about an ACID database, as database consistency refers to transactions, while atomic consistency refers only to a property of a single request/response operation sequence.

  9. Consistency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistency

    Because consistency of ZF is not provable in ZF, the weaker notion relative consistency is interesting in set theory (and in other sufficiently expressive axiomatic systems). If T is a theory and A is an additional axiom , T + A is said to be consistent relative to T (or simply that A is consistent with T ) if it can be proved that if T is ...
