System for synchronizing information
First Claim
1. A mobile device, comprising:
- a memory that stores instructions; and
a controller coupled to the memory, wherein the controller, responsive to executing the instructions, performs operations comprising;
detecting a resource control manager when roaming into a communication zone of the resource control manager;
transmitting a pairing key to the resource control manager to enable communications with the resource control manager;
establishing communications with the resource control manager responsive to a validation of the pairing key;
detecting differences between content stored in the resource control manager and content stored in the mobile device as content differences;
synchronizing differences between content stored in the resource control manager and content stored in the mobile device; and
initiating a software application to be executed at the mobile device,wherein the initiating causes a remote server to identify the resource control manager according to header information from a gateway that transmits a message, wherein the message comprises the header information, wherein the header information comprises an internet address assigned to the gateway, and wherein the resource control manager enables communications with the mobile device responsive to authenticating the mobile device according to the pairing key.

Abstract
A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium operating in a mobile device server having computer instructions to execute a web server application at the mobile device server. The web server application can be operable to detect a media resource center while roaming in a communication zone of the media resource center, and to transmit a pairing key to the media resource center. The web server application can be further operable to receive authorization from the media resource center to synchronize differences between content stored in the media resource center and content stored in the mobile device server responsive to the media resource center validating the pairing key. Other embodiments are disclosed.

15. A machine-readable storage device, comprising instructions, wherein responsive to executing the instructions, a processor of a mobile device server performs operations comprising:
-
detecting a resource control manager while roaming in a communication zone of the resource control manager; transmitting a pairing key to the resource control manager; receiving authorization from the resource control manager to synchronize differences between content stored in the resource control manager and content stored in the mobile device server responsive to the resource control manager validating the pairing key, wherein the authorization comprises an internet protocol address and an identifier of a software application, and wherein the internet protocol address enables a remote server to identify the resource control manager; and initiating the software application to be executed at the mobile device server responsive to the receiving authorization, wherein the receiving the authorization causes the remote server to identify the resource control manager according to header information from a gateway, wherein the authorization further comprises the header information, wherein the header information comprises an internet address assigned to the gateway, and wherein the resource control manager enables communications with the resource control manager responsive to authenticating the resource control manager according to the pairing key. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A resource control manager, comprising:
-
a memory to store instructions; and a controller coupled to the memory, wherein responsive to executing the instructions, the controller performs operations comprising; managing a plurality of resources communicatively coupled to the resource control manager; receiving an identifier from a mobile device server; identifying a service grade from the identifier; selected a resource from the plurality of resources according to the service grade; enabling the mobile device server to synchronize content stored in the mobile device server with content stored in the resource; receiving a message from a remote server; and initiating a software application identified by the message received from the remote server, wherein the remote server identifies a resource control manager according to header information from a gateway that transmits the message, wherein the message comprises the header information, and wherein the header information comprises an internet address assigned to the gateway, and wherein the resource control manager enables communications with the resource control manager responsive to authenticating the resource control manager according to the identifier. - View Dependent Claims (20)
