碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 資訊工程研究所 === 89 === Because of the mature of the software technologies, there are more and more software applications off the shelf. Further more, there is huge promotion on the computing and transfer power of wireless devices, the applying area of software technologies have been extended. In these applications, most of them aim at the same functionalities or user groups. But the developing methods are totally different and have low relativity between them. It will be more convenient if the data of each device can be integrated and perform the synchronization process. In this thesis, we will introduce the Multi-Sync Protocol. Many software applications use synchronization technologies but the implementation method of these applications are totally different and only can be used at restricted devices or data types. We hope our synchronization protocol can break the walls between them. This protocol can not efficiently reduce the process of synchronization but can lower the complexity on the development of synchronization application. Meanwhile, reduce the volume of data transfer for the bandwidth limitation of present specification of mobile transfer protocol. By separating the synchronization logic and data access for each device, different devices can through our synchronization protocol to communicate with other and perform synchronization.
