Abstract: The current invention discloses methods and devices that may be used to maintain continued synchronization during a P2P session when a synchronizing terminal withdraws from synchronizing the operations of one or more participating terminals. A server may temporarily replace the synchronizing terminal and request operating status information from the participating terminals. After calculating data differences between the participating terminals using the operating status information, the server may transmit the data differences to the participating terminals so that each participating terminal is configured to synchronize itself with the other participating terminals. A new synchronizing terminal is selected from the participating terminals so that the new synchronizing terminal is configured to synchronize the operations of the remaining participating terminals.

Abstract: The current invention discloses methods and devices that provide controlled randomization of the progression of an application program on one or more terminals connected to a server. The server may feed a seed random number to the terminals and the seed random number may be used by a platform-independent random number generator to produce random numbers. The random numbers may be fed to platform-dependent random processing commands to generate display contents, which may be displayed by the terminals. With such implementations, the same program running at different times may have different processes and show different display contents. The current invention reduces predictability and improves randomness and excitability of the program.
