A method of synchronizing a data processing device (9-11) with a data processing system (1) to which the data processing device (9-11) has an intermittent connection, includes determining a first context based on variable data (30). A second context, valid over a longer term than the first context, is determined based on further data (28). Both the first and the second context are used to control a synchronization process during which data is communicated between the data processing device (9-11) and the data processing system (1), and which results in at least one of them obtaining a target set of data (31,32,33). The target set of data is determined in such a way that its composition is based on both the first and the second context. |
