SYNCHRONIZATION METHODS AND SYSTEMS
First Claim
1. A machine implemented method comprising:
- determining whether a first software component is available on a first data processing system, the first software component being configured for causing retrieval and storage of structured data of a first data class as part of a synchronization process;
determining, in response to the determining of whether the first software component is available, whether to synchronize the structured data of the first data class between the first data processing system and a second data processing system.

Abstract
Synchronization architectures, methods, systems, and computer readable media are described. One exemplary embodiment includes a first software component configured to cause retrieval and storage of structured data for a first data class from a first store on a device, such as a first data processing system, and configured to synchronize structured data for the first data class in the first store with structured data of the first data class in a second store on a host, such as a second data processing system. The first software component is separate from an application software which provides a user interface to allow a user to access and edit the structured data. The first software component synchronizes the structured data through a second software component which interfaces with the host and the device and which controls an order of synchronizing and a plurality of data classes including the first data class.
