A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SCHEDULING BACKGROUND SYNCHRONIZATION OF APPLICATION DATA

摘要

A system (1) for scheduling background synchronization of application data (2) between a mobile communication device (3)and a cloud storage (4), comprising: - a collecting unit (100) estimating the size of application data (2); - a prediction unit (101) adapted to predict future locations (300) of the mobile communication device (3) at future times(301); - a cost module (102) adapted to calculate a cost of transfer (5) at future times (301) and future locations(300); and - a scheduler (103) adapted to schedule the background synchronization at a future time (311) based on cost of transfer (511).
