Abstract

A method of configuring permission for sharing data and touch link electronic device utilizing the same are described. The method, configuring permission for sharing data, adopted by a first touch link electronic device, the method including: establishing, by a touch panel of the first touch link electronic device, a first communication channel to a second touch link electronic device; transmitting the permission to the second touch link electronic device via the first communication channel, wherein the permission corresponds to the shared data; and transmitting the shared data to the second touch link electronic device.

Claims

1. A method of configuring permission for shared data, adopted by a first touch link electronic device, the method comprising:

establishing, by a touch panel of the first touch link electronic device, a first communication channel to a second touch link electronic device;

transmitting the permission to the second touch link electronic device via the first communication channel, wherein the permission corresponds to the shared data; and

transmitting the shared data to the second touch link electronic device.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

when detecting that a distance between the first and second touch link electronic devices is less than or equal to 5 millimeters, establishing the first communication channel.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

configuring, by a permission configuration module, the permission.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the permission indicates validity or an access property of the shared data.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the permission is associated with a type, a valid time, or a valid number of access times of the shared data, a type of the second touch link electronic device, or an event which is triggered to invalidate the shared data.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the shared data includes at least a part of a file.

7. A method of configuring permission for shared data, adopted by a first touch link electronic device, the method comprising:

establishing, by a touch panel of the first touch link electronic device, a first communication channel to a second touch link electronic device;

receiving a first permission from the second touch link electronic device via the first communication channel, wherein the first permission corresponds to the shared data transmitted by the second touch link electronic device; and

receiving the shared data.

8. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

when detecting a distance between the first and second touch link electronic devices is less than or equal to 5 millimeters, establishing the first communication channel.

9. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

assigning, by a permission control module, a property of the shared data according to the first permission.

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

analyzing, by a permission analyzing module, the first permission;

wherein the step of assigning the property of the shared data according to the first permission comprises;

assigning, by the permission control module, the property to the shared data according to the analyzed first permission.

11. The method of claim 10, wherein the step of assigning the property of the shared data comprises:

assigning the property to the shared data according to the analyzed first permission and a second permission in the first touch link electronic device.

12. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

when the first permission indicates that the shared data is invalid, an access operation of the shared data is forbidden.

13. The method of claim 7, wherein the first permission indicates validity or an access property of the shared data.

14. The method of claim 7, wherein the first permission is associated with a type of the shared data.

15. A first touch link electronic device, comprising:

a touch panel; and

a touch link module, configured to establish a first communication channel to a second touch link electronic device, and transmit a permission to the second touch link electronic device via the first communication channel;

wherein the permission corresponds to the data shared to the second touch link electronic device to provide the shared data with a property assigned by the permission in the second touch link electronic device.

16. The first touch link electronic device of claim 15, wherein the touch link module further comprises:

a sensing module, configured to determine whether the first touch link electronic device is in close proximity to the second touch link electronic device; and

a connection module, configured to establish the first communication channel via the touch link module when the sensing module determines that they are in close proximity.

17. The first touch link electronic device of claim 16, wherein when a distance between the first and second touch link electronic devices is less than or equal to 5 millimeters, the sensing module is configured to determine that the first touch link electronic device is in close proximity to the second touch link electronic device.

18. The first touch link electronic device of claim 15, further comprises:

a permission configuration module, arranged to configure the permission.

19. The first touch link electronic device of claim 15, wherein the permission indicates validity or an access property the shared data.

20. The first touch link electronic device of claim 15, wherein the permission is associated with a type, a valid time, or a valid number of access times of the shared data, a type of the second touch link electronic device, or an event which is triggered to invalidate the shared data.

21. The first touch link electronic device of claim 15, wherein the shared data includes at least a part of a file.

22. A first touch link electronic device, comprising:

a touch panel; and

a touch link module, configured to establish a first communication channel to a second touch link electronic device, and receive a permission from the second touch link electronic device via the first communication channel;

wherein the permission corresponds to the data shared from the second touch link electronic device to provide the shared data with a property assigned by the permission in the first touch link electronic device.

23. The first touch link electronic device of claim 22, wherein the touch link module further comprises:

a sensing module, configured to determine whether the first touch link electronic device is in close proximity to the second touch link electronic device; and

a connection module, configured to establish the first communication channel via the touch link module when the sensing module determines that they are in close proximity.

24. The first touch link electronic device of claim 23, wherein when a distance between the first and second touch link electronic devices is less than or equal to 5 millimeters, the sensing module is configured to determine that the first touch link electronic device is in close proximity to the second touch link electronic device.

25. The first touch link electronic device of claim 22, further comprising:

a permission control module, arranged to assign a property of the shared data according to the first permission.

26. The first touch link electronic device of claim 25, further comprising:

a permission analyzing module, configured to analyze the first permission;

wherein the permission control module is configured to assign the property to the shared data according to the analyzed first permission.

27. The first touch link electronic device of claim 22, wherein the permission control module is further configured to assign the property to the shared data according to the analyzed first permission and a second permission in the first touch link electronic device.

28. The first touch link electronic device of claim 22, wherein when the first permission indicates that the shared data is invalid, an access operation of the shared data is forbidden.

29. The first touch link electronic device of claim 22, wherein the first permission indicates validity or an access property of the shared data.
