Abstract: One aspect of the invention is a method of sharing a group of one or more objects between a plurality of users, in which one or more of said plurality of users is able to change parameter data of at least one said object. The method comprises storing at least one version of each said object; when an object is changed, creating a new version of the object, the new version of the object comprising additional data relating to the creation of the new version; storing the new version of the object together with any version of that object before the change; providing all versions of the object to each of said plurality of users; and using the additional data provided for each version of the object to determine how to display the object. Another aspect of the present invention comprises a method of synchronising data between a primary device and one or more subsidiary devices, said method comprising; storing a primary set of data on said primary device; comparing data on each subsidiary device with said primary set of data; updating said primary set of data; and updating data on each of said subsidiary devices using said updated primary set of data. Another aspect of the invention relates to a method of synchronising between three or more devices, said method comprising; storing an indication of the device or devices involved in each synchronisation event; storing data changes received during a current synchronisation event together with the device submitting those changes; and applying the data changes subsequent to the stored synchronisation event for the or each device.

Abstract translation: 本发明的一个方面是在多个用户之间共享一个或多个对象的组的方法，其中所述多个用户中的一个或多个能够改变至少一个所述对象的参数数据。 该方法包括存储每个所述对象的至少一个版本; 当对象被改变时，创建对象的新版本，新版本的对象包括与创建新版本有关的附加数据; 在更改之前将对象的新版本与该对象的任何版本一起存储; 将所述对象的所有版本提供给所述多个用户中的每一个; 并使用为对象的每个版本提供的附加数据来确定如何显示对象。 本发明的另一方面包括一种在主设备和一个或多个辅助设备之间同步数据的方法，所述方法包括： 将主要数据集合存储在所述主设备上; 将每个辅助设备上的数据与所述主要数据集进行比较; 更新所述主要数据集; 以及使用所述更新的主要数据集更新每个所述辅助设备上的数据。 本发明的另一方面涉及一种在三个或更多个设备之间同步的方法，所述方法包括： 存储每个同步事件中涉及的设备或设备的指示; 存储在当前同步事件期间接收的数据变化以及提交这些改变的设备; 以及在所述或每个设备的所存储的同步事件之后应用所述数据改变。

Abstract: Methods, systems and machine readable media for operating a calendar in a data processing system. In one exemplary method, a calendar interface is displayed on a display device, wherein the calendar interface is capable of displaying calendar events for a user, and a control interface is displayed, which control interface allows the user to selectively display calendar events simultaneously from at least two calendars of the user in the calendar interface.
