  • initiating synchronization by the first node with the second node including transmitting to the second node knowledge of the first node concerning a set of objects and corresponding versions for the objects of the set of objects represented on the first node;

    receiving by the first node first changes to the set of objects from the second node of which the first node is not aware based on a comparison of knowledge of the second node and the knowledge of the first node;

    receiving by the first node from the second node the knowledge of the second node concerning the set of objects and corresponding versions of the objects of the set of objects represented on the second node; and

    comparing the knowledge of the second node with the knowledge of the first node to determine what second changes to the set of objects to send to the second node of which the second node is unaware.
