comparing the system configurations corresponding to each of the timestamps respectively to acquire the information about transition history of system configuration of the second target medical equipment corresponding to the second target equipment numbers.

7. A method for data processing, comprises:

acquiring a first target upgrading identification in a software upgrading package to be unpacked;

comparing the first target upgrading identification with a second target upgrading identification corresponding to the system configuration of a medical equipment; and

if the second target upgrading identification is consistent with any of the first target upgrading identification, unpacking a software installation package to upgrade the medical equipment.

8. The method of claim 7, further comprises:

if the second target upgrading identification is consistent with none of the first target upgrading identification, acquiring difference information describing the difference between the system configuration corresponding to the second target upgrading identification and the system configuration corresponding to the first target upgrading identification; and

rejecting the unpacking of the software upgrading package and indicating the difference information to the user.

9. A server, comprising a processor configured to execute machine readable instructions corresponding to a control logic for first data processing in storage medium, the machine-readable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
