  • Publication number: 20030046502
    Abstract: This invention is intended to make it unnecessary to introduce a backup-dedicated unit by utilizing a storage area provided in an existing computer (a POS unit, in particular), to compact, distribute and store backup data by introducing an encoder and a decoder to compact and expand data, and to also introduce a restore mechanism. After a content of a memory M1 of a POS unit (POS1) is compacted by an encoder C1, the content is split, distributed to and backed up in memories M2 to M5 of POS units (POS2 to POS5). If a fault occurs to the memory M1 of the POS unit (POS1), the respective pieces of data backed up in the POS units (POS2 to POS5) are combined, decoded by the decoder D1 and restored in the memory M1.
