Method for synchronizing a information of a client based on the internet-network}

The present invention relates to a method for synchronizing client information based on the Internet network. More specifically, the update information outputted from a series of information transmission management agents is selected as the information reception management agents simultaneously with the login of specific information reception management agents. A method of synchronizing client information based on the Internet network which can build a module environment that can be transmitted and thereby induce the information of the information sharing client to be synchronized with the information of the client of the information updater in the shortest time. will be.

Recently, as the on-line business infrastructure has been widely established, the use of information processing clients such as desktop computers, notebook computers, and the like has also increased rapidly.

In general, under an online business processing system according to the prior art, any user updates and manages various information necessary for a job through his or her own information processing client, and later uses this information in various business fields.

However, under the online business processing system according to the related art, since the information created by each user is managed independently through a separate information processing client, even if the information of the user side is newly updated on the other user side having a transaction relationship with the user. As a result, it is very difficult to identify this in the shortest time.

For example, even if the address book information managed on a specific user side is newly updated, the other user side which is in a trading relationship with the user cannot grasp this at all within the shortest time.

As such, when individual users in a trading relationship cannot grasp the information update status of both sides in a short time, each user is forced to bear the inconvenience of not being able to cooperate smoothly with each other.

Under these problems, the user who has updated the information has no choice but to notify the other users in the business relationship of the update through a separate means such as telephone, fax, e-mail, etc. Inevitably, you will have to bear the cost.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an information transmission and reception management agent dedicated to the transmission and reception of information to each of the information updater-side client and the information sharer-side client, and to provide the information transmission management agent to the system side. Constructing a module environment that can select and send the update information outputted from the specific information receiving management agents to the corresponding information receiving management agents at the same time as the login of the specific information receiving management agents. By inducing it to be reflected in the shortest time, it is to induce the individual users who are in a trading relationship with each other to maintain the information consistent with each other without any inconvenience.

Another object of the present invention is to organize the online synchronization of information, to eliminate the use of telephone, fax, e-mail, and the like, thereby greatly reducing unnecessary waste of time, cost and the like.

Still other objects of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings.

4 is an exemplary diagram conceptually illustrating a database field of an information receiving management agent according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, according to the event data transmitted from a series of information transmission and reception management agents pre-installed on any information updater-side client and information-sharing client that are individually connected to the Internet network, A series of client information synchronization methods proceeds as follows.

Specifically, the client information synchronization method of the present invention includes determining whether a series of update information transmission events have occurred from the information transmission management agent, and when update information transmission events occur from the information transmission management agent, Changing previously stored information on the system side according to the update information, temporarily storing the previously updated information, extracting a series of information sharer data specified by the information updater, and extracting the information sharer data Temporarily storing; and determining whether the "information sharing management agent of the information sharing client" logged in the information sharing data is logged into the system; and when the information receiving management agent logs in to the system, Existing update information to the receiving agent It is a combination of the steps of the song.

Hereinafter, a method of synchronizing client information based on the Internet network according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the client information synchronization system 100 constituting the base environment of the present invention is largely an information synchronization management server 101, a D / B management server 104, a D / B block 105, and the like. Is made up of a combination. In this case, the member information D / B 106, the shared information D / B 107, and the like are arranged in the previous D / B block 105.

At this time, the member information D / B 106 includes, for example, an information renewer / information sharer authentication ID / authentication password, information sharer data designated by the information updater, information renewer / information sharer mail account subscribed to the system 100 side. And a series of member-related information such as information updater / information sharer system visit history ... ", and the like, " Information updater address book information, information sharer address book information, information updater " A series of shared information such as product information, information sharer product information, ... "is stored. Of course, such shared information may be variously modified according to the situation of the system.

At this time, the previous D / B management server 104 selectively stores the above-described member information, shared information, etc. in the required area of the D / B block 105, or the previous member information D / B 106, sharing It selectively outputs the above-mentioned various data from the information D / B 107 and the like.

In this case, the D / B management server 104 not only plays a role of storing and outputting various data, but also simultaneously plays an intelligent role of efficiently managing these data in the fastest time without overlapping.

In this state, the information synchronization management server 101 controls the D / B management server 104 systematically so as to selectively determine whether to store and extract the above-described member information and shared information. do.

On the other hand, any information updater, information sharer, or the like, who wishes to enjoy the present invention, utilizes the information updater side client 1, the information sharer side client 2, and the like, and is online to the client information synchronization system 100 of the present invention. I can connect it.

At this time, the information transmission management agent 200 which guides the information update process by the information updater to a part of the client of the information updater and transmits a series of update information updated by the information updater to the system 100. The information receiving management agent 300 for receiving and managing update information transmitted from the system 100 is installed in a part of the information sharing side client.

In this case, the information transmission management agent 200, the information reception management agent 300, and the like, for example, use a TCP / IP-based socket, for example, the data synchronization management server 101 and a series of data. The exchange process can proceed smoothly.

In this case, the interface module 102 synchronizes various event data output from the information transmission / reception management agent 200, 300 while the information transmission / reception management agent 200, 300 and the information synchronization management server 101 are mediated. In addition to transmitting to the management server 101, and serves to transmit various data output from the information synchronization management server 101 to the information transmission and reception management agent (200,300).

On the other hand, as shown in the figure, the information synchronization management server 101 is not only the D / B management server 104, the interface module 102, but also the application loader 103, data temporary storage buffer 108 and the like. Also form a series of signal connection relationship.

In this case, the previous application loader 103, when a series of applications, for example, a request for loading a message, such as the information transmission management agent 200, the information reception management agent 300 is transmitted from the information synchronization management server 101, By transferring the agents 200 and 300 to the information synchronization management server 101, the information transmission management agent 200 and the information reception management agent 300 which have been previously transmitted to the information updater-side client 1 and the information sharer-side client 2, respectively. It plays a role to assist the back to be installed stably.

In this case, any information updater, information sharer, or the like, who wishes to enjoy the series of services according to the present invention, initially accesses the client information synchronization system 100 and performs a series of subscription procedures before using the present invention in earnest. By advancing, the above-mentioned information transmission / reception management agent 200, 300 may be pre-installed in some areas such as the information updater-side client 1, the information sharer-side client 2, and the like.

In addition, the data temporary storage buffer 108 is transmitted from the information transmission management agent 200 installed in the information updater-side client 1, for example, and in response thereto, the information synchronization management server 101 is transmitted. When a series of " update information temporary storage request messages " are delivered from the server, it serves to temporarily store a series of information updater-side information transmitted from the information transmission management agent 200.

In addition, when the " information sharer data temporary storage request message " is transmitted from the information synchronization management server 101, the data temporary storage buffer 108 temporarily stores the corresponding information sharer data, thereby allowing the information synchronization management server 101 It plays a role of supporting the stable information synchronization process.

Hereinafter, the client information synchronization method unique to the present invention using the client information synchronization system 100 having the above-described configuration will be described in detail.

As shown in Fig. 2, first, by using the present invention, any information updater who wishes to enjoy a series of update information synchronization services has been previously installed in the information updater-side client 1 of the information transmission management agent 200. After activating the information creation platform 401 as shown in FIG. 3, the information creation platform 401 is utilized to proceed with a series of information update processes (step S100).

In the future, when the information updater partially updates the information desired by the user, such as address book information, and selects the update, the information transmission management agent 200 immediately converts the update data created by the sender into data for network transmission. The update data, which has been converted, is transmitted to the interface module 102 on the system 100 side through a series of socket communication.

With this infrastructure in place, the information synchronization management server 101 continuously checks the interface module 102 to determine whether a series of update information transmission events have occurred from the information transmission management agent 200. (Step S1).

At this time, if it is determined that the information updater has not yet completed a series of information update processes and a separate update information transmission event has not occurred from the information transmission management agent 200, the information synchronization management server 101 performs a flow. Proceeding to step S2, a series of standby states are maintained.

However, the information updater changes the " specific subject address list item 402 " of the information creation platform 401, selects the update item 403, and transmits a series of update information transmission events from the information transmission management agent 200. Is detected, the information synchronization management server 101 immediately utilizes the D / B management server 104 to extract the member information stored in the member information D / B 106, and then the extraction is completed. The member information is used to authenticate whether or not the corresponding information updater is registered (step S3). Of course, the update information transmitted from the information transmission management agent 200 includes a variety of data necessary for authentication of the information updater, for example, the information updater authentication ID, so that the information synchronization management server 101 can easily proceed with such an authentication process. In addition, information updater authentication password is attached.

When this authentication process is completed and whether the information updater is normally registered, the information synchronization management server 101 immediately utilizes the D / B management server 104 to share the information D / B 107. By updating the shared information stored, for example, the information updater side address book information according to the previous update information (step S4), the information held by the system 100 matches the information held by the information updater side client 1 accurately ( Matching).

Subsequently, the information synchronization management server 101 requests the data temporary storage buffer 108 to "store the update information transmitted from the information transmission management agent 200", and the data temporary storage buffer 108 synchronizes the information. As soon as this request message is transmitted from the management server 101, the update information is stably stored temporarily (step S5).

Through the above process, if the update information transmitted from the information transmission management agent 200 is temporarily stored in the data temporary storage buffer 108, the information synchronization management server 101 immediately, the D / B management server 104 This information is obtained by extracting, for example, "information sharer data designated by the information updater" stored in the member information D / B, and transferring the extracted information sharer data to the previous data temporary storage buffer 108. The sharer data can be stably stored in the data temporary storage buffer 108 (steps S6 and S7).

In this state, the information synchronization management server 101 continuously checks the interface module 102, the data temporary storage buffer 108, and the like to determine whether a series of information sharer login events have occurred from the information sharer side client 2. It is judged whether or not (step S8).

At this time, if it is determined that the information sharer does not proceed with a series of computational operations for logging in to the system 100, and it is determined that a separate information sharer login event has not occurred from the information sharer side client 2, the information synchronization management server 101 The flow advances the flow to step S9 to maintain a series of standby states.

However, if the information sharer runs the information receiving management agent 300 previously installed in the information sharer client 2 and judges that a series of information sharer login events have occurred from the information sharer client 2, information synchronization is performed. The management server 101 immediately utilizes the D / B management server 104 to check the " system visit history of the corresponding information sharer " stored in the member information D / B 106, and based on this, It is determined whether the information sharer first logged in to the system 100 after the arrival of the aforementioned update information (step S10).

At this time, if the information sharer is an information sharer who has already performed two or more login processes after the arrival of the update information, and there is no need to proceed with steps S12 to S16 described later, the information synchronization management server 101 performs the flow in step S11. Proceed to the other process selected by the information sharer.

However, if the information sharer is the information sharer first logged into the system 100 after the arrival of the update information, the information synchronization management server 101 immediately stores the temporary data using the data temporary storage buffer 108. After extracting the update information on the information updater side, the process of transmitting the extracted update information to the information sharer side client 2 via the interface module 102 is performed (step S12).

In this case, the information reception management agent 300 previously installed in the information sharing side client 2 receives the information updater side update information transmitted from the information synchronization management server 101 through a series of socket communication. This information is quickly stored in its D / B (not shown), and as a result, as shown in FIG. 4, the " specific subject address list included in the data field 404 of the information receiving management agent 300. Item 405 "can be accurately matched with information held by the information updater-side client 1.

In the conventional case, since the information created by each user was independently managed through a separate information processing client, other users in a trading relationship with the user could not grasp this information in the shortest time even if the information on the user side was newly updated.

However, in the case of the present invention, as described above, each of the information updater-side client 1 and the information sharer-side client 2 is provided with an information transmission / reception management agent 200, 300 dedicated to the transmission and reception of information. Installed, the system 100 can be selected and transmitted to the information receiving management agents 300 at the same time the login information of the specific information receiving management agents 300, the update information output from the information transmission management agent 200 in the previous Since a modular environment is established, the information update history of the information updater-side client 1 can be reflected to the information sharer-side client 2 in the shortest time, and as a result, individual users who are in a trading relationship with each other are inconvenient. Without this, information between each other can be kept consistent.

According to the implementation of the present invention, when the online synchronization of information is organized, the information updater can easily exclude the usage practices such as telephone, fax, and e-mail. Consequently, unnecessary waste of time and cost are greatly reduced. The reduced effect can be easily obtained.

On the other hand, the information synchronization management server 101 continuously checks the interface module 102 while the series of information updater-side update information is transmitted to the information reception management agent 300 through the above-described step S12. It is determined whether or not a series of information update completion messages have been transmitted from the reception management agent 300 (step S13).

At this time, if it is determined from the information reception management agent 300 that a separate information update completion message has not yet been delivered, the information synchronization management server 101 proceeds to step S14 to maintain a series of standby states.

However, the information reception management agent 300 stably changes its D / B according to the information updater side update information, reports the result, and receives a series of information update completion messages from the information reception management agent 300. If it is determined that the information is delivered, the information synchronization management server 101 immediately controls the data temporary storage buffer 108 and proceeds to delete all of the information updater-side update information stored temporarily (step S15). . In this case, the data temporary storage buffer 108 swiftly advances a series of information deletion routines under the control of the information synchronization management server 101, thereby stably deleting the information updater-side update information that has been temporarily stored.

When the information on the information sharer side is stably changed in accordance with the update information on the information updater side and all the information stored temporarily in the data temporary storage buffer 108 is deleted through the above-described process, the information synchronization management server 101 Immediately generates a series of synchronization result messages for informing that the information on the information sharer side has been stably updated, and generates the synchronization result message of the information update management agent (1) of the information updater side (1). The process of transmitting to 200 is performed (step S16).

In this case, the information transmission management agent 200 receives the synchronization result message transmitted from the system 100 through a series of socket communication, and then rapidly reflects the details to its D / B (not shown). As soon as the reflection process is completed, the synchronization result is displayed through a series of display platforms, so that the information updater can easily check on-line that the data change process that has been progressed is stably reflected to the information sharer.

Thereafter, the information synchronization management server 101 performs the previous D / B management server 104 and the data temporary storage buffer 108 whenever a series of update information transmission events are generated from any information updater-side client 1. By flexibly utilizing the back and the like, the information synchronization process is quickly executed, so that the information on the information sharer side can be matched in the shortest time in accordance with the update information on the information updater side.

As described in detail above, in the present invention, an information transmitting / receiving management agent dedicated to transmitting and receiving information is installed in each of the information updater-side client and the information sharer-side client, and the previous information is installed on the system side. Constructing a module environment that can select and send the update information output from the source management agent to the corresponding information receiving management agents at the same time as the login of the specific information receiving management agents, and through this, the information of the information sharing side client Induce to be synchronized with the information in the shortest time.

According to the implementation of the present invention, when the information update history of the information updater side client is reflected to the information sharer side client in the shortest time, individual users who are in a trading relationship with each other keep the information consistent with each other without any inconvenience. It becomes possible.

In addition, when the online synchronization of information is systematically implemented by the practice of the present invention, the information updater can easily exclude the use practices such as telephone, fax, and e-mail. Consequently, unnecessary waste of time, cost, etc. Significantly reduced effects can be easily obtained.

According to the present invention described above, various modifications can be made.

For example, in the present invention, the aforementioned information management process may be performed based on a series of wireless Internet networks.
