  • Data synchronization using a composite clock
    Patent number: 10467248
    Abstract: A synchronization method can include: calculating a maximum anchor; and creating a sync action entry for a data record on a local machine, a data record on a remote machine, or a combination thereof, an action change number set to a greatest change number between a change number for the data record on the local machine and a change number for the data record on the remote machine, and a composite clock number set: to the maximum anchor based on the action change number of the sync action entry being less than the maximum anchor, and to the action change number of the sync action entry based on the action change number of the sync action entry being less than an action change number of a subsequent sync action entry and the action change number of the sync action entry being greater than the maximum anchor.

  • Data synchronization using a composite change clock
    Patent number: 9116971
    Abstract: A method can include: calculating a maximum sync anchor change number; and creating a sync action entry, the sync action entry having a sync action change number and a composite change clock number, the composite change clock number set: to the maximum sync anchor change number when the sync action change number of the sync action entry is less than the maximum sync anchor change number, and to the sync action change number of the sync action entry when the sync action change number of the sync action entry is less than a sync action change number of a subsequent sync action entry and the sync action change number of the sync action entry is greater than the maximum sync anchor change number.

  • DATA SYNCHRONIZATION USING A COMPOSITE CHANGE CLOCK
    Publication number: 20130304700
    Abstract: A method can include: calculating a maximum sync anchor change number; and creating a sync action entry, the sync action entry having a sync action change number and a composite change clock number, the composite change clock number set: to the maximum sync anchor change number when the sync action change number of the sync action entry is less than the maximum sync anchor change number, and to the sync action change number of the sync action entry when the sync action change number of the sync action entry is less than a sync action change number of a subsequent sync action entry and the sync action change number of the sync action entry is greater than the maximum sync anchor change number.
