       | 
       | Vector Clocks: Only update on arrival of external Events (new
       | vector: max of other participant clocks, increment my own event
       | clock)
       | 
       | Version Vectors: Update if there's a local Replica change OR
       | external notification informs them other Replicas have changed
       | (new vector: max known value of each Replica version)
