Filed:

Mar 31, 1998

Appl. No.:

09/052769

Inventors:

Darryl G. Champagne - Litchfield NH, US
Robert C. Daley - Nashua NH, US
Glen A. Walant - Nashua NH, US

Assignee:

Intellisync Corporation - San Jose CA

International Classification:

G06F017/30

US Classification:

707203, 707201, 345333, 345335

Abstract:

In order to transfer data between two databases, a computer program automatically establishes a field map between the record structures of the two databases using information identifying the record structure of one of the databases. The field map is established automatically by correlating a first plurality of the fields of the first database to a second plurality of the fields of the second database to establish a field map. The data stored in the first plurality of fields of a plurality of the records of the first database is then translated in accordance with the field map. The information identifying the record structure of one of the databases identifies the record structure according to a selected field identification protocol identifying the categories and properties of the fields in the record structure of that database. This information may be transmitted to the computer program ahead of any data transfer so that a data transfer protocol, including the field map, may be established prior to the start of the data transfer.

US Classification:

7071041, 707101, 707102, 707103 R

Abstract:

Synchronizing at least first and second instances of PIM databases stored on a client device with at least one instance of a PIM database stored on a server, by running client synchronization software on the client device, running server synchronization software on the server, which is connected to the client device over a communications link, having the client synchronization software determine changes made to the first and second instances on the client device, transmitting the changes in a single transmission, and having the server synchronization software process the changes for both the first and second instances.

Assignee:

Puma Technology, Inc., Delaware corporation

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

707/100000

Abstract:

A computer implemented method is provided for synchronizing a first database located on a first computer and a second database located on a second computer. At the first computer, it is determined whether a record of the first database has been changed or added since a previous synchronization, using a first history file located on the first computer comprising records representative of records of the first database at the completion of the previous synchronization. If the record of the first database has not been changed or added since the previous synchronization, the first computer sends the second computer information which the second computer uses to identify the record of the first database to be unchanged.

International Classification:

H04Q 7/20

US Classification:

455425000

Abstract:

The present invention makes it possible to obtain debug- and other diagnostic information from mobile electronic devices in a system operator network. A Log Management object provides support for logging diagnostic data. A log file is employed to collect information on various device features for which tracing or debugging is turned on in a mobile electronic device such as, for example, a mobile handset, cellular phone, a personal digital assistant, a pager and a personal computer. It is also used to selectively collect information on specific events that are monitored, device specific data being collected, and network performance data, among other items. The diagnostic agent in the mobile device is a client side application that may run on the mobile device when required, or continuously as a monitoring application, and which manages and collects tracing information wirelessly to a server using a cellular data network. A diagnostic client may also be downloaded and executed to collect diagnostic data from applications, for example. Traps may also be set and data collected from them. The Log file may be retrieved from the server side in pull or push mode.

International Classification:

H04Q 7/08

US Classification:

340007290

Abstract:

A method and system for interfacing to an electronic device is disclosed. A service provider may receive a request from the electronic device to determine whether any of the specified mobile terminals may be within a specified range of the electronic device. The range may be a default value and/or specified by a user of the electronic device. The service provider may communicate to the electronic device whether any of the specified mobile terminals may be within the specified range. If so, the service provider may communicate information regarding the location of the mobile terminals within range. The service provider may also communicate to the electronic device a map on which the mobile terminals may be placed.

International Classification:

G06F 1700

US Classification:

707201

Abstract:

A computer implemented method and a computer program for synchronizing a first and a second database, where data is provided for keeping track of whether the records of the first database have been added or changed since a previous synchronization. Based data reflecting whether the records of the first database have been added or changed since a previous synchronization, it is determined whether the records of the first database have been changed or added since the previous synchronization. If one of the records of the first database has not been changed or added since the previous synchronization, a synchronization with records of the second database is performed using a record representative of the one record at the time of a previous synchronization. The representative record is stored in a history file which contains records reflecting the contents of records of the databases at the time of a previous synchronization.
