摘要:
The present invention discloses a new synchronization architecture for synchronization of data between different clients by using a central synchronization server linked to a Back End data store which additionally provides a cache for permanently buffering incoming updates into a permanent store by assigning an unique cache identifier (ID). Write conflicts between the synchronization server writing new entries to the cache and updates replicated from backend to cache are solved using a blocking mechanism based on the cache IDs, so that the backend updates are blocked as long as incoming updates from the clients having the same cache ID are not completely written into the cache during a synchronization session. The present invention is preferably suited for a synchronization architecture having a high number of clients connected with the central synchronization server as blocking of the Back End data store, and the connection and the transport to the Back End data store are minimized.

The present invention provides a method for audio presentations based on environmental context and user preferences. The method includes receiving data indicative of acoustic conditions proximate to an audio presentation device, receiving data associated with at least one audio profile, and determining acoustic data to be provided based on at least a portion of the received data indicative of acoustic conditions proximate to the audio presentation device and at least a portion of the data associated with the at least one audio profile.

The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for modifying visual presentations based on environmental context, display characteristics, and user preferences. The apparatus includes an interface and a controller coupled to the interface. The controller is adapted to receive data indicative of light conditions proximate to a visual presentation device, receive data associated with at least one visibility profile, and determine visual data to be displayed by the visual presentation device based on at least a portion of the received data indicative of light conditions and the received data associated with the at least one visibility profile.
