In this paper, we propose a consistency management method that constructs quorums with fewer nodes. In our method, assuming that the area where nodes exist is divided into several regions, each quorum is constructed based on the locations of the regions. As a result, the proposed methods can reduce the communication overhead while keeping the strict consistency among replicas.
