<p>A method and apparatus for providing data synchronization and/or resolving data conflicts is disclosed. In today's data communication environment multiple pieces of information may be received by a device and one of the pieces must be selected for processing or storage. The present system assigns a context value to each piece of information to describe the relevance of the piece of information to a recipient. When a recipient recognizes that it has received two or more pieces of information purporting to serve the same purpose, the context values of the pieces of information are evaluated and the piece of information having the largest context value, representing the most relevance to the recipient, is selected.</p> |
