Abstract
An arbitration policy resolves software applications operating on a single unit of data in a manner conflicting with other applications that operates on the same data or properties of the data. This is accomplished through picking an entity type of one application to have priority over an entity type of another application when both entity types map to a same property which caused the conflict. This allows user to observe the data in a consistent manner when switching between applications.
