Abstract
A network-connectable terminal can synchronize data in connected devices. The network-connectable terminal includes a memory unit and a synchronization unit. The memory unit stores metadata updated according to update of data. The synchronization unit updates the metadata, creates version information indicating whether the metadata are updated, and exchanges version information with peripheral devices to determine a peripheral device and data requiring synchronization.
