Description
本發明係關於一遠端資料處理裝置同步傳輸檔案技術,更明確而言,本發明係關於一種用於在一網路系統中同步化兩個或更多個資料處理裝置中之資料變化的遠端資料處理裝置同步傳輸檔案技術。The present invention relates to a remote data processing device synchronous transmission file technology, and more particularly to a method for synchronizing data changes in two or more data processing devices in a network system. The data processing device transmits the file technology synchronously.
隨著科技的發達及地球村的形成,資料傳輸技術衍然已顯著地影響人們的生活及工作。目前人們常用的網路資料傳輸技術大致上有,例如:MSN、e-mail及網路芳鄰等。人們常藉由以上資料傳輸系統來達到資料傳輸之目的。但前兩者(MSN及e-mail)有檔案大小的限制,而最後一者(網路芳鄰)則有空間的限制。當需要傳輸大量資料至較遠的地方時(例如,國外),人們則採用隨身碟的方式來達到資料傳輸之目的。With the development of science and technology and the formation of global villages, data transmission technology has significantly affected people's lives and work. At present, the commonly used network data transmission technologies are, for example, MSN, e-mail, and network neighbors. People often use the above data transmission system to achieve the purpose of data transmission. But the first two (MSN and e-mail) have file size restrictions, while the last one (network neighbor) has space limitations. When it is necessary to transfer large amounts of data to a remote location (for example, abroad), people use a flash drive to achieve data transmission.
然而,隨著各種產業的國際化,人們常因工作需要出差,而造成工作地點的時常更換,此外現今的工作型態已從過去的個人獨立完成工作轉變到現在的團體合作方式,一個案子往往是結合多人的力量來完成的,也因此過去的資料傳輸技術已無法達到現在的資料傳輸需求。利用隨身碟攜帶資料的缺點有以下,一是無法同時在多個資料處理裝置上修改檔案,另外因為每次更換工作地點則需要再儲存一次修改過的檔案,增加造成檔案漏存的機會,因而造成無法繼續進行中的工作或是需要聯絡在當地的同事幫忙,如此會大大影響工作進度,甚至工作的停擺。因此需要一更有效之遠端資料處理裝置之傳輸檔案技術來滿足當今社會上的需求。However, with the internationalization of various industries, people often travel because of work, which causes frequent replacement of work places. In addition, the current work style has changed from the individual independent work done in the past to the current group cooperation mode. It is combined with the power of many people, and as a result, the data transmission technology of the past has been unable to meet the current data transmission needs. The disadvantages of using the portable information to carry information on the flash drive are as follows. First, it is impossible to modify the file on multiple data processing devices at the same time. In addition, each time the work location is changed, the modified file needs to be stored once again, thereby increasing the chance of file loss. It can't continue the work in progress or need to contact the local colleagues to help, which will greatly affect the work schedule and even the work stoppage. Therefore, a more efficient remote file processing device transmission file technology is needed to meet the needs of today's society.
本發明藉由遠端資料處理裝置同步傳輸檔案技術達到一同步資料傳輸資料之目的,從而彌補了上述缺點。The invention overcomes the above disadvantages by the purpose of synchronous transmission of file technology by the remote data processing device to achieve the purpose of synchronizing data transmission data.

The data generated in two or more data processing devices in the road system changes. The data processing device in the network system includes a search unit, a data set, an index, an index capture unit, a comparison unit, a monitoring unit, and a synchronization unit. Each time the data processing device is turned on, its search unit searches for other data processing devices in the same network system that are to be synchronized. Then, searching for the data set to be synchronized in the data processing device to be synchronized, and storing the index of the data processing device to find the data change information of the data set, including the data change and the data change time. Next, the comparison unit compares the order of changes of the data to determine the final data change. The synchronization unit then aggregates the contents of the data processing devices. In addition, the time during which the data change occurs in the data processing device can be further matched with a time unit to obtain an objective time basis, and the time sequence of the data change generation is known.

The search unit 203 can be implemented by a program or a signal transmission. FIG. 2c illustrates an exemplary list 204. The list 204 includes two basic fields, one of which is a field for inputting the name of the target data processing device to be synchronized, and the other field is for input. The field for accessing the password of the target data processing device is to be synchronized. A user may fill in the identification of the target data processing device 202 in a field for inputting the name of the target data processing device 202 to be synchronized (for example, an account number or a pair name resolution protocol (PNRP)) And accessing the access code of each target data processing device 202 in the access password field, so that each time the synchronization action is to be generated, the search unit 203 of the local data processing device 201 directly inputs the access password, thereby achieving The connection of the target data processing device 202. The search unit 203 in a local data processing device 201 in a network system searches for the target processing system 202 in the same network system according to the user's establishment of the list 204 included in the search unit 203. In the foregoing, the list 204 includes an identification (eg, an account number) of the target processing system 202 in the same network system, which is identified as a name of the target data processing device 202 in the network system (eg, PNRP, That is, the Peer Name Resolution Protocol (Peer Name Resolution Protocol), the identification corresponds to a network location (for example, an IP address), so that the user of the local data processing device 201 can identify the search target data processing device 202 The location of the network in the network system. The account number can be obtained automatically by the local data processing device 201 or manually by the user. After the local data processing device 201 searches for the target material processing device 202, the target data processing device 202 proposes an access password request to confirm that the native data processing device 201 has access rights. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing a summary flow of the data processing device 201 for searching the target data processing device 202 and generating a data change for the local data set.
圖4概要繪示該資料處理裝置202提出一存取密碼要求之視窗。在其他具體實施例中,也可將存取密碼如前述,儲存於本機資料處理裝置201之清單204中,在目標資料處理裝置202提出存取密碼要求時自動輸入,如此使用者便無需記住目標資料處理裝置202的存取密碼,而直接存取目標資料處理裝置202之目標資料集合217。在確認本機資料處理裝置201具有存取權限後,本機資料處理裝置201之搜尋單元203進一步找出目標資料處理裝置202中使用者設定為欲與本機資料處理裝置201之本機資料集合214同步化之目標資料集合217及記錄此目標資料集合217所有資料變化的目標索引213。接著,本機資料處理裝置201之搜尋單元203在搜尋到目標索引213後,將目標索引213之紀錄傳輸至本機資料處理裝置201中的索引擷取單元207,以擷取目標索引213中所有關於目標資料集合217之資料變化資訊及資料變化之產生時間的資訊。FIG. 4 schematically illustrates a window in which the data processing device 202 proposes an access password request. In other embodiments, the access password may be stored in the list 204 of the local data processing device 201 as described above, and automatically input when the target data processing device 202 requests the access password, so that the user does not need to remember The access code of the target data processing device 202 is stored, and the target data set 217 of the target data processing device 202 is directly accessed. After confirming that the local data processing device 201 has the access authority, the searching unit 203 of the local data processing device 201 further finds the local data set set by the user in the target data processing device 202 to be the local data processing device 201. 214 Synchronized target data set 217 and target index 213 for recording all data changes of this target data set 217. Then, after searching for the target index 213, the search unit 203 of the local data processing device 201 transmits the record of the target index 213 to the index extraction unit 207 in the local data processing device 201 to capture all the targets in the target index 213. Information about the change information of the target data set 217 and the time when the data was changed.
其中,在將目標資料處理裝置202之目標索引213中所有關於目標資料集合217之資料變化資訊及資料變化時間資訊傳回至本機資料處理裝置201前,該目標索引213之資料變化之產生時間資訊可經由本機資料處理裝置201之後比較單元209之換算,亦或經過,如圖2b所繪示之該遠端資料處理裝置傳輸系統200進一步包含之計時單元218之換算,以能夠與本機索引215中之資料變化記錄有一客觀之時間比較依據。其中,此計時單元218可包含於任何通訊管理裝置中(例如,一基地台或一伺服器)之一第三方通訊裝置中,以得到一統一之客觀之時間比較依據。舉例而言,本機資料處理裝置201及目標資料處理裝置202可能在不同的時區,如此本機資料處理裝置201及目標資料處理裝置202的時間設定就會有很大的不同,故需要一客觀之第三方計時單元218換算目標資料處理裝置202中目標索引213所記錄之所有關於目標資料集合217之資料變化的產生時間,從而能夠與本機資料處理裝置201中本機索引215所記錄之所有關於本機資料集合214之資料變化的產生時間客觀地比較。The data change time of the target index 213 is generated before the data change information and the data change time information about the target data set 217 in the target index 213 of the target data processing device 202 are transmitted back to the local data processing device 201. The information may be converted by the comparison unit 209 after the local data processing device 201, or may be converted by the timing unit 218 further included in the remote data processing device transmission system 200 as shown in FIG. 2b to be able to communicate with the local device. The data change record in index 215 has an objective time comparison basis. The timing unit 218 can be included in one of the third party communication devices of any communication management device (for example, a base station or a server) to obtain a unified objective time comparison basis. For example, the local data processing device 201 and the target data processing device 202 may be in different time zones, such that the time settings of the local data processing device 201 and the target data processing device 202 are greatly different, so an objective is required. The third-party timing unit 218 converts the generation time of all the data changes regarding the target data set 217 recorded by the target index 213 in the target data processing device 202, so that it can be recorded with the local index 215 recorded in the local data processing device 201. The generation time of the data change regarding the local data set 214 is objectively compared.

圖6繪示此遠端資料同步傳輸系統200同步化之一流程圖。首先,步驟601包含設定資料集合,在正式啟動同步化之動作前,本機資料處理裝置201之使用者及目標資料處理裝置202之使用者需先藉由本機設定單元212及目標設定單元208來設定欲用於同步化之資料集合。在較佳實施例中,本機資料處理裝置201中欲用於與目標資料處理裝置202同步化之資料集合稱作本機資料集合214,而目標資料處理裝置202中欲用於與本機資料處理裝置201同步化之資料集合則稱作目標資料集合217。接著便開始正式之同步化動作,同步化動作的第一步即為步驟602,搜尋資料處理裝置及索引。藉由本機資料處理裝置201之搜尋單元203搜尋網路系統中欲同步化之目標資料處理裝置202之網路位置,其中該搜尋單元203係藉由包含於其中,用於儲存一對應到一網路位置之帳號或是一網路位址之一清單204加以搜尋。在本機資料處理裝置201搜尋到目標資料處理裝置202後,該目標資料處理裝置202提出一判定此本機目標資料處理裝置201是否有存取權限。FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing synchronization of the remote data synchronization transmission system 200. First, the step 601 includes setting the data set. Before the action of the synchronization is officially started, the user of the local data processing device 201 and the user of the target data processing device 202 need to first use the local setting unit 212 and the target setting unit 208. Set the collection of data to be used for synchronization. In the preferred embodiment, the set of data in the local data processing device 201 that is to be used for synchronization with the target data processing device 202 is referred to as the local data set 214, and the target data processing device 202 is intended to be used with the local data. The set of data synchronized by the processing device 201 is referred to as a target data set 217. Then, the formal synchronization action is started. The first step of the synchronization action is step 602, searching for the data processing device and the index. The search unit 203 of the local data processing device 201 searches for the network location of the target data processing device 202 to be synchronized in the network system, wherein the search unit 203 is included therein for storing a corresponding network. The account location or a list of network addresses 204 is searched for. After the local data processing device 201 searches for the target data processing device 202, the target data processing device 202 proposes whether or not the local target data processing device 201 has access authority.
在目標資料處理裝置202給予存取權限後,本機資料處理裝置201之搜尋單元203進一步搜尋目標資料處理裝置202中的目標索引213,並將目標索引213記錄到之資料變化回傳至本機資料處理裝置201之索引擷取單元207,以開始603步驟,擷取索引,其中本機資料處理裝置201之索引擷取單元207擷取目標索引213中所有與目標資料集合217相關之資料變化資訊及資料變化產生時間,並進一步將此資訊傳輸至比較單元209。進一步進到步驟604比較索引記錄之資訊,本機資料處理裝置201之比較單元209將接收到之資料變化加以比較,以找出本機資料處理裝置201前一次關機後產生之資料變化,並排出資料變化之先後順序。其中,當本機資料處理裝置201之比較單元209發現同一資料有多於一次之資料變化時,提出一尋問,供使用者選取欲保留之資料版本。使用者可選取一或多個欲保留之版本。接著,將比較資訊傳輸至本機同步化單元210,以進行步驟605產生相應資料變化,如此便能達成初步之同步化之目的。After the target data processing device 202 gives the access authority, the search unit 203 of the local data processing device 201 further searches the target index 213 in the target data processing device 202, and records the data recorded by the target index 213 back to the local device. The index extracting unit 207 of the data processing device 201 starts the indexing step 207, wherein the index capturing unit 207 of the local data processing device 201 retrieves all the data change information related to the target data set 217 in the target index 213. And the data change generation time, and further transmit the information to the comparison unit 209. Further, the process proceeds to step 604 to compare the information of the index record, and the comparing unit 209 of the local data processing device 201 compares the received data changes to find out the data change generated by the local data processing device 201 after the previous shutdown, and discharges the data. The order of data changes. Wherein, when the comparing unit 209 of the local data processing device 201 finds that the same data has more than one change of data, an inquiry is made for the user to select the version of the data to be retained. The user can select one or more versions to be retained. Then, the comparison information is transmitted to the local synchronization unit 210 to perform the step 605 to generate corresponding data changes, so that the preliminary synchronization can be achieved.
在達成初步之同步化後,本機資料處理裝置201當持續監控本機資料處理裝置202之本機索引215,以及目標資料處理裝置202之目標索引213以達到隨時同步化之目的。故本機資料處理裝置201之監控單元206在達成初步之同步化後,接著進行步驟606監控索引,本機資料處理裝置201之監控單元206監控本機索引215及目標索引213,當本機索引215或目標索引213任一者產生新的資料變化時,監控單元206將此資訊傳輸至索引擷取單元207,以進行步驟607,擷取監控到之索引變化。此步驟擷取監控到之本機索引215或目標索引216所記錄到之資料變化,接著將該擷取到之資料變化資訊傳輸至比較單元209,進行如前述之比較動作,並將比較結果傳輸至本機同步化單元210,本機同步化單元210接著進到步驟609,產生相應資料變化。本機同步化單元210依所得到之資料變化資訊對本機資料集合214及目標資料集合217產生相應之資料變化,便能完成步驟610達成同步化。After the initial synchronization is achieved, the local data processing device 201 continuously monitors the local index 215 of the local data processing device 202 and the target index 213 of the target data processing device 202 for synchronization purposes. Therefore, after the initial synchronization is achieved, the monitoring unit 206 of the local data processing device 201 performs the step 606 monitoring index, and the monitoring unit 206 of the local data processing device 201 monitors the local index 215 and the target index 213, when the local index When either 215 or the target index 213 generates a new data change, the monitoring unit 206 transmits the information to the index extraction unit 207 to perform step 607 to retrieve the index change monitored. This step captures the data change recorded by the local index 215 or the target index 216, and then transmits the captured data change information to the comparing unit 209, performs the comparison action as described above, and transmits the comparison result. To the local synchronization unit 210, the local synchronization unit 210 then proceeds to step 609 to generate a corresponding data change. The local synchronization unit 210 generates a corresponding data change for the local data set 214 and the target data set 217 according to the obtained data change information, and the synchronization of step 610 can be completed.
