 |

After some time I realized that OT has significant drawbacks in P2P environments.

With my gained experiences I came up with a new approach. I named it Yata - Yet Another Transformation Approach.

With my gained experiences I came up with a new approach. I named it *Yata* - Yet Another Transformation Approach.
 | 
			
		||||
It enables concurrent editing with the following space and time properties:
 | 
			
		||||
* Time complexity: O(S), whereby S is the number of operations that are inserted concurrently at the same position. This means that my approach does not transform against operations that happen on other positions.
 | 
			
		||||
* Space complexity = O(|Document|), whereby |Document| is the size of the shared document. Depending on the used data structure, Yata may needs 4*|Document| of space.
 | 
			
		||||
* Time complexity: O(S), whereby S is the number of operations that are inserted concurrently at the same position (no transformation against operations that happen on different positions).
 | 
			
		||||
* Space complexity = O(|Document|), whereby |Document| is the size of the shared document.
 |

This means that my approach beats all OT time complexities. Furthermore, it is possible to make a very strict definition of Intention Preservation, and I was able to

This means that my approach beats all OT time complexities. Furthermore, Yatta has a very strict definition of Intention Preservation, and I was able to
 | 
			
		||||
show that it is never violated.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Another advantage of my approach is that propagated messages are very small.

Another advantage of Yata is that propagated messages are very small.
 | 
			
		||||
Background: In real-time P2P OT algorithms you have to send a state-vector with each message that defines the state of the History Buffer
 | 
			
		||||
on which the operation was created. This is not necessary in Yata.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
One downside is that the History Buffer holds at least as many operations as there are characters in the document.
 | 
			
		||||
The downside of this approach is that the History Buffer holds at least as many operations as there are characters in the document.
 | 
			
		||||
In contrast, an OT algorithm can have an empty History Buffer while the document size is very big.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Eventually (after my thesis), I will publish more information about Yata.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
So, how did I come up with the name for the implementation (Yatta! is not Yata)?
 | 
			
		||||
Yatta! means "I did it!" in Japanese. You scream it when you accomplish something (for proper application I refer to the Yatta-man in [Heroes](http://heroeswiki.com/Yatta!)).

Yatta! is still in an early development phase. Don't expect that everything is working fine.
 | 
			
		||||
But I would become really motivated if you give me some feedback ([github](https://github.com/DadaMonad/Yatta/issues) or mail).
