METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SYNCHRONIZING TASKS PERFORMED BY MULTIPLE DEVICES

摘要

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to synchronize multiple devices. In regards to a method, an indication is received that a view of a task is presented by a first device (10). The method causes state information to be provided to a second device (12) to permit the second device to be synchronized with the first device and to present a view of the task (80), either the same view or a different view than that presented by the first device. The method also receives information relating to a change in state of the task that is provided by one of the devices while a first view of the task is presented thereupon. Further, the method causes updated state information to be provided to another one of the devices to cause the other device to remain synchronized and to update a second view of the task that is presented.
