XML-BASED SYNCHRONISATION OF MOBILE MEDICAL DEVICES

Today, mobile computing provides enough resources to be used in medical applications. Patient treatment is a process that involves multiple partners. All those partners need access to common patient-data and need to make changes to the patients' health record. Therefore, data that the partners collect and change with mobile devices has to be synchronized on a central server to form the master patient record. Data conflicts resulting from the synchronization have to be solved automatically. Our project describes a solution for XML-based data replication and synchronization for mobile health applications.
