FILE SYNCHRONIZATION : TOWARDS AN EFFICIENT FILE SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN DIGITAL SAFES
EWIT · International Journal of Computing Communications and Networking · 2018
The paper's goal is to develop a secure framework that ensures file synchronization with high quality and minimal resource consumption.As a first step towards this goal, we propose the SyncDS protocol with its associated architecture.The synchronization protocol efficiency raises through the choice of the used networking protocol as well as the strategy of changes detection between two versions of file systems located in different devices.Our experiment results show that adopting the Hierarchical Hash Tree to detect the changes between two file systems and adopting the.WebSocket protocol for the data exchanges improve the efficiency of the synchronization protocol.
