Abstract

See full text

A system and method are provided for sharing data among a plurality of users via an intermittently accessed network. Included are a plurality of personal digital assistants, or PDA's, each suitable for storing a plurality of personal data sets thereon. Also provided is a server for synchronizing a plurality of server data sets stored thereon with the personal data sets stored on the PDA's. A plurality of client computers are included for providing a communication link between the PDA's and the server. Each communication link is suitable for obtaining the personal data set of one PDA on another PDA, thereby synchronizing the personal data sets between different PDA's. In the absence of communication between the client computer and the server, the communication link is further suitable for interfacing local memory of the corresponding client computer to synchronize a plurality of local data sets stored thereon with the personal data sets during synchronization.
