This patent protects an innovative way of backing up data from a computer to a generic storage. In the current state of art, a user has to make a trade off between the space used to store his backup and the speed of a restoration for a lost data. To accelerate the restoration process, the user will have to store a full image of the system at each backup. This approach is very space consuming. To optimize the space used, the user can do incremental backup between distant full system backup. The… Show more

This patent protects an innovative way of backing up data from a computer to a generic storage. In the current state of art, a user has to make a trade off between the space used to store his backup and the speed of a restoration for a lost data. To accelerate the restoration process, the user will have to store a full image of the system at each backup. This approach is very space consuming. To optimize the space used, the user can do incremental backup between distant full system backup. The space required is smaller, but the restoration process can be long and painful. The invention will allow to take the best of both approach through a specific backup algorithm designed to take advantage of a duplicated storage. Show less

This patent protects an innovative way of synchronizing data between a computer, a server and a mobile device: indeed, the current state of art does not allow to synchronize a mobile device with two different data source. In particular, a user has to choose between syncing locally or remotely. When syncing locally, the user can take all his data, but cannot update it while away from his computer. When syncing remotely, the data are updated live, but the user has to select a sub-portion of his… Show more

In particular, a user has to choose between syncing locally or remotely. When syncing locally, the user can take all his data, but cannot update it while away from his computer. When syncing remotely, the data are updated live, but the user has to select a sub-portion of his data. The present invention takes the best of both approach through an innovative sync algorithm.
