Abstract

A method and a system for mobile distributed processing are presented. The method includes the steps of receiving, from a server, a message contained in a database and determining a type of the message for presenting the message. If the message is of a multi media type, at least displaying images contained in the message on a display. If the message is of a data type, displaying data contained in the message on the display. If the message is of an audio type, reproducing audio associated with the message in an audible fashion. The method further including the steps of terminating receiving of the message and sending an active request to the server to set a status of the message in the database to execution done.

Claims

1. A method for mobile distributed processing that uses at least one database as communication means between computers without an intermediary proprietary server to handle the messages, the method comprising the steps of:

receiving, from a server, a message contained in a database;

determining a type of said message for presenting said message;

if said message is of a control type, extracting from said database at least one control table that holds at least data to exchange, a command, and a response, and executing a process corresponding to said command, and when the process is finished or the message interpretation is done, indicating that process is completed a control table, and either archiving or purging said command;

if said message is of a multi media type, at least displaying images contained in said message on a display;

if said message is of a data type, displaying data contained in said message on said display;

if said message is of an audio type, reproducing audio associated with said message in an audible fashion;

terminating receiving of said message; and

sending an active request to said server to set a status of said message in said database to execution done.

2. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein said step of receiving further comprises receiving on a mobile device.

3. The method as recited in claim 2, wherein said step of receiving further comprises receiving over the Internet using a gateway server for security.

4. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein said audio is an alert indicating a further message is available.

5. The method as recited in claim 2, wherein said step of receiving further comprises replicating at least a portion of said database containing said message to form a replicated database.

6. The method as recited in claim 5, wherein said replicating comprises filtering to provide security of information in said database.

7. The method as recited in claim 2, wherein said message comprises, in part, captured information from a user on the system.

8. The method as recited in claim 7, wherein said message further comprises data associated with said captured information.

9. The method as recited in claim 7, wherein said captured information comprises images.

10. The method as recited in claim 2, wherein said step of sending an active request further comprises sending information as to when said message was received.

11. The method as recited in claim 10, wherein said step of sending an active request further comprises sending an additional message to be included in said database with said message.

12. The method as recited in claim 11, wherein said sending an additional message is for the purpose of collaborating with said user.

13. The method as recited in claim 11, wherein said additional message comprises additional captured information.

14. The method as recited in claim 13, wherein said additional captured information comprises images.

15. The method as recited in claim 11, wherein said additional message is added to said replicated database where at least a portion of said replicated database is sent to said server for replicating into said database.

16. The method as recited in claim 2, wherein said step of sending an active request further comprises sending a request to process a program on a destination device and return results in a message form using said database.

17. The method as recited in claim 2, wherein said step of sending an active request further comprises sending a request to control a process on a remote device.

18. The method as recited in claim 2, wherein said step of receiving is on an enterprise network.

19. A method for mobile distributed processing that uses at least one database as communication means between computers without an intermediary proprietary server to handle the messages, the method comprising:

steps for receiving, from a server, a message contained in a database;

steps for determining a type of said message;

steps for processing said message;

steps for terminating receiving of said message; and

steps for sending an active request to said server.

20. A system for mobile distributed processing that uses at least one database as communication means between computers without an intermediary proprietary server to handle the messages, the system comprising:

means for receiving, from a server, a message contained in a database;

means for determining a type of said message for presenting said message;

means for receiving and processing a command and executing a process corresponding to said command;

means for displaying images contained in said message on a display;

means for displaying data contained in said message on said display;

means for reproducing audio associated with said message in an audible fashion;

means for terminating receiving of said message; and

means for sending an active request to said server.
