Desktop Sync via Cloud Intermediary for Cross-Platform Editing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing cloud storage schemes can only simply store and synchronize files or folders across different platforms, without enabling easy editing or processing due to varying file processing capacities and methods between platforms.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for desktop synchronization that involves obtaining desktop data from a processing center, determining if the corresponding application program is installed, and associating the desktop data with the application program, allowing files to be used, edited, and modified across platforms by ensuring the appropriate application program is linked during synchronization.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If files or folders are synchronized across different platforms using existing cloud storage schemes, then file storage and basic synchronization are achieved, but the ability to edit and process files across platforms is lost due to different file processing capacities and methods on various platforms
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a cloud storage service as an intermediary between different platforms. The service includes a file processing module that receives file processing requests from terminal devices of different platforms, processes the files centrally in the cloud, and returns the processed files to the requesting terminals. This mediator approach allows files to be processed with consistent capabilities across all platforms, resolving the incompatibility issue while maintaining cross-platform accessibility.
2Productivity
If cloud storage services store and synchronize files across platforms, then file availability is improved, but file processing and editing capabilities are limited by the capabilities of individual platforms
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the file processing capabilities of multiple platforms into a single centralized processing module in the cloud storage service. Instead of relying on individual platform capabilities, the system combines processing power, editing tools, and file management functions in the cloud, allowing users to access and process files with enhanced capabilities regardless of which terminal device they use.
3Reliability
If different platforms have different file processing capacities, then platform-specific optimization is achieved, but cross-platform file processing consistency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal file processing module in the cloud storage service that can handle various file types and processing operations across all platforms. This multi-functional module provides consistent file processing capabilities regardless of the terminal device used, ensuring that files are processed with the same reliability and quality on Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, or any other platform.

AI summary
The present invention provides a method, device, processing center and system for desktop synchronization and relates to the technical field of network. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining desktop data from a processing center; determining whether an application program corresponding to the desktop data has been installed; associating the desktop data with the corresponding application program if it is determined that the corresponding application program has been installed. The present invention resolves the problem that the present cloud storage scheme could only simply store and synchronize files or folders, and achieves the effects that the desktop can be synchronized across each platforms, and the files in the desktop data can be used, edited and modified after the synchronization across platforms, by associating the locally application program with the desktop data while synchronizing the desktop data.
