Method for controlling access to electronic documents using locks

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a telecommunication method for controlling data access to a telecommunication server, the telecommunication server being connected to at least one first client terminal via at least a digital cellular telecommunication network, wherein the telecommunication server and the first client terminal communicate via a stateless protocol within at least a first communication session, the first client terminal being a battery powered device, the telecommunication server comprising an electronic document, the electronic document having a plurality of input fields for entry of electronic data, wherein a first lock and a session ID are assigned to the electronic document, the session ID being indicative of the first communication session, wherein the first lock is released by the telecommunication server upon ending the first communication session, the telecommunication server comprising multiple applications for accessing the electronic document, the telecommunication server further comprising a session control unit, wherein in a first access mode the session control unit is adapted to control access by the multiple applications to the electronic document using the first lock and the session ID, the method comprising receiving by the telecommunication server a first request from a first user of the first client terminal for accessing the electronic document, the first request being indicative of a first user ID of the first user.

主权项

1. A telecommunication method for controlling data access to a telecommunication server, the telecommunication server being connected to at least one first client terminal via at least a digital cellular telecommunication network, wherein the telecommunication server and the first client terminal communicate via a stateless protocol within at least a first communication session, the first client terminal being a battery powered device, the telecommunication server comprising an electronic document, the electronic document having a plurality of input fields for entry of electronic data, wherein a first lock and a session ID are assigned to the electronic document, the session ID being indicative of the first communication session, wherein the first lock is released by the telecommunication server upon ending the first communication session, the telecommunication server comprising multiple applications for accessing at least the electronic document, the telecommunication server further comprising a session control unit, wherein in a first access mode the session control unit is adapted to control access by the multiple applications to the electronic document using the first lock and the session ID, the method comprising:
receiving by the telecommunication server a first request from a first user of the first client terminal for accessing the electronic document, the first request being indicative of a first user ID of the first user; in response to receiving the first request, creating and assigning by the telecommunication server a set of locks to the electronic document, wherein the set of locks comprises at least a second lock that is released by the telecommunication server upon deleting the electronic document, and wherein the second lock is not released by the telecommunication server upon ending the first communication session; saving by the telecommunication server the second lock in association with at least the first user ID for enabling the first user to access the electronic document using the first user ID; configuring the session control unit to switch from the first access mode to a second access mode, wherein in the second access mode the session control unit is configured to access the electronic document using the second lock and the first user ID instead of the first lock; generating by the telecommunication server an identification address of the electronic document in accordance with a communication protocol of the telecommunication network; sending the identification address to the first client terminal by the telecommunication server; displaying by the first client terminal the electronic document; entering first user data in at least part of the input fields of the displayed electronic document; sending at least part of the first user data by the first client terminal during the first communication session, using the first user ID and the identification address as a communication address; receiving by the telecommunication server the at least part of the first user data from the first client terminal; controlling the session control unit to save the at least part of the first user data in the electronic document using the first user ID and the second lock; and controlling the session control unit to switch back to the first access mode and to commit the at least part of the first user data using the first access mode, wherein the commit comprises releasing the first lock.
