This paper describes ReBound, a system that provides an adaptive framework for supporting and exploiting data precision vs. efficiency tradeoffs in symmetric replication environments via distributed precision control. Previous work proposed efficient precision control algorithms that support continuous read requests tagged with custom numerical precision ranges. ReBound generalizes and extends previous work with a new algorithm for continu-ous reads, support for ad-hoc reads, and light-weight adaptation mechanisms for coping with dynamically changing update patterns. This paper also presents pre-liminary experimental results, based on a prototype im-plementation, that demonstrate the performance advan-tages of exploiting precision vs. efficiency tradeoffs.
