Background
[0003] Today, in addition to working with documents on a local device, such as a desktop computer or a tablet, people keep copies of documents in a cloud-computing environment. They may do so for backup, collaboration and other purposes. It is important to keep different versions of documents synchronized between the local device and the cloud-computing environment, and it would be useful to make the synchronization process efficient and user-friendly.

[0022] Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for a synchronization client that is connected with a collaboration environment including a cloud-based platform (e.g., cloud-based file sharing, collaboration, and/or storage platform/service) and runs on a client device to synchronize folders and files between the collaboration environment and the user device.
[0023] FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example environment 100 in which users or collaborators communicate with a cloud-based concurrent-access collaboration platform (cloud-based service/platform, collaboration workspace and/or cloud storage service). A host system 110 hosts the collaboration platform which enables users to simultaneously create, view, edit, annotate, store, share and otherwise manage content in real time or near real time. The host system 110 has a high-availability architecture suited for handling the large volume of user requests.
[0024] The client devices 102 can be any system and/or device, and/or any combination of devices/systems that is able to establish a communication or a connection, including wired, wireless, cellular connections with another device, a server and/or other systems such as the host server 110. The client devices 102 typically include a display and/or other output functionalities to present information and data exchanged between among the client devices 102 and/or the host server 110.
[0025] For example, the client devices 102 can include mobile, handheld or portable devices or non-portable devices and can be any of, but not limited to, a server desktop, a desktop computer, a computer cluster, or portable devices including, a notebook, a laptop computer, a handheld computer, a palmtop computer, a mobile phone, a cell phone, a PDA, a smart phone (e.g., a BlackBerry device such as BlackBerry Z10/Q10, an iPhone, Nexus 4, etc.), a Treo, a handheld tablet (e.g. an iPad, iPad Mini, a Galaxy Note, Galaxy Note II, Xoom Tablet, Microsoft Surface, Blackberry PlayBook, Nexus 7, 10 etc.), a phablet (e.g., HTC Droid DNS, etc.), a tablet PC, a thin-client, a hand held console, a hand held gaming device or console (e.g., XBOX live, Nintendo DS, Sony PlayStation Portable, etc.), mobile-enabled powered watch (e.g., iOS, Android or other platform based), Google Glass, a Chromebook and/or any other portable, mobile, hand held devices, etc. running on any platform or any operating system (e.g., Mac-based OS (OS X, iOS, etc.), Windows-based OS (Windows Mobile, Windows 7, Windows 8, etc.), Android, Blackberry OS, Embedded Linux platforms, Palm OS, Symbian platform, Google Chrome OS, and the like. In one embodiment, the client devices 102 and host server 110 are coupled via a network 106. In some embodiments and the client devices 102 and host server 100 may be directly connected to one another.
[0026] The input mechanism on client devices 102 can include touch screen keypad (including single touch, multi-touch, gesture sensing in 2D or 3D, etc.), a physical keypad, a mouse, a pointer, a track pad, motion detector (e.g., including 1-axis, 2-axis, 3-axis accelerometer, etc.), a light sensor, capacitance sensor, resistance sensor, temperature sensor, proximity sensor, a piezoelectric device, device orientation detector (e.g., electronic compass, tilt sensor, rotation sensor, gyroscope, accelerometer), or a combination of the above.
[0027] Signals received or detected indicating user activity at client devices 102 through one or more of the above input mechanism, or others, can be used by various users or collaborators (e.g., collaborators 108) for accessing, through the network 106, a web-based collaboration environment or online collaboration platform (e.g., hosted by the host server 110). The collaboration environment or platform can have one or more collective settings 105 for an enterprise or an organization where the users belong, and can provide a user interface 104 for the users to access such platform under the settings 105.
[0028] In general, the network 106, over which the client devices 102 and the host server 110 communicate may be a cellular network, a telephonic network, an open network, such as the Internet, or a private network, such as an intranet and/or the extranet, or any combination or variation thereof. For example, the Internet can provide file transfer, remote log in, email, news, RSS, cloud-based services, instant messaging, visual voicemail, push mail, VoIP, and other services through any known or convenient protocol, such as, but is not limited to the TCP/IP protocol, Open System Interconnections (OSI), FTP, UPnP, iSCSI, NSF, ISDN, PDH, RS-232, SDH, SONET, etc.
[0029] The network 106 can be any collection of distinct networks operating wholly or partially in conjunction to provide connectivity to the client devices 102 and the host server 110 and may appear as one or more networks to the serviced systems and devices. In one embodiment, communications to and from the client devices 102 can be achieved by, an open network, such as the Internet, or a private network, such as an intranet and/or the extranet. In one embodiment, communications can be achieved by a secure communications protocol, such as secure sockets layer (SSL), or transport layer security (TLS).
[0030] In addition, communications can be achieved via one or more networks, such as, but are not limited to, one or more of WiMax, a Local Area Network (LAN), Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), a Personal area network (PAN), a Campus area network (CAN), a Metropolitan area network (MAN), a Wide area network (WAN), a Wireless wide area network (WWAN), or any broadband network, and further enabled with technologies such as, by way of example, Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), Personal Communications Service (PCS), Bluetooth, WiFi, Fixed Wireless Data, 2G, 2.5G, 3G (e.g., WCDMA/UMTS based 3G networks), 4G, IMT-Advanced, pre-4G, LTE Advanced, mobile WiMax, WiMax 2, WirelessMAN-Advanced networks, enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE), General packet radio service (GPRS), enhanced GPRS, iBurst, UMTS, HSPDA, HSUPA, HSPA, HSPA+, UMTS-TDD, 1xRTT, EV-DO, messaging protocols such as, TCP/IP, SMS, MMS, extensible messaging and presence protocol (XMPP), real time messaging protocol (RTMP), instant messaging and presence protocol (IMPP), instant messaging, USSD, IRC, or any other wireless data networks, broadband networks, or messaging protocols.
[0031] FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the collaboration platform deployed in an enterprise or other organizational setting 250 for organizing workspaces 205, 225 and 245 and work items 215, 235 and 255. The collaboration platform or environment hosts workspaces with work items that one or more users can access (e.g., view, edit, update, revise, comment, download, preview, tag, or otherwise manipulate, etc.). A work item can generally include any type of digital or electronic content that can be viewed or accessed via an electronic device (e.g., client devices 202). For example, the work items 215 and 235 include general digital content, such as .pdf files, .doc, slides (e.g., Powerpoint slides), images, audio files, multimedia content, web pages, blogs, etc. On the other hand, the work items 255 comprise “notes” or documents of a proprietary format, which support advanced and unique capabilities of data management and promote collaboration. A workspace can generally refer to any grouping of a set of digital content managed by the collaboration platform. For example, the workspaces A 205 and B 225 include general digital content while the workspace 245, referred to as a “notebook”, includes notes only. The grouping can be created, identified, or specified by a user or through other means. This user may be a creator user or administrative user, for example.
[0032] In general, a workspace can be associated with a set of users or collaborators (e.g., collaborators 108) who have access to the content included therein. The levels of access (e.g., based on permissions or rules) of each user or collaborator to access the content in a given workspace may be the same or may vary among the users. Each user may have their own set of access rights to every piece of content in the workspace, or each user may have different access rights to different pieces of content. Access rights may be specified by a user associated with a workspace and/or a user who created/uploaded a particular piece of content to the workspace, or any other designated user or collaborator.
[0033] In general, the collaboration platform allows multiple users or collaborators to access or collaborate on work items such that each user can remotely see edits, revisions, comments, or annotations being made to specific work items through their own user devices. For example, a user can upload a document to a workspace for other users to access (e.g., for viewing, editing, commenting, signing-off or otherwise manipulating). The user can login to the online platform and upload the document (or any other type of work item) to an existing workspace or to a new workspace. The document can be shared with existing users or collaborators in a workspace.
[0034] The web-based platform for collaborating on projects or jointly working on documents can be used by individual users and shared among collaborators. In addition, the collaboration platform can be deployed in an organized setting including but not limited to, a company (e.g., an enterprise setting), a department in a company, an academic institution, a department in an academic institution, a class or course setting, or any other types of organizations or organized setting.
[0035] When deployed in an organizational setting, multiple workspaces (e.g., workspace A, B C) can be created to support different projects or a variety of work flows. Each workspace can have its own associate work items. For example, workspace A 205 can be associated with work items 215, workspace B 225 can be associated with work items 235, and workspace 245 can be associated with work items 255. The work items 215, 235, and 255 can be unique to each workspace but need not be. For example, a particular work item or a note can be associated with only one workspace or it can be associated with multiple workspaces.
[0036] In general, each workspace has a set of users or collaborators associated with it. For example, workspace A 205 is associated with multiple users or collaborators 206. In some instances, workspaces deployed in an enterprise can be department specific. For example, workspace B can be associated with department 210 and some users shown as example user A 208, and workspace N 245 can be associated with departments 212 and 216 and users shown as example user B 214.
[0037] In the case of a notebook, collaborators of the notebook can have simultaneous read/write access to a note in the notebook. Specifically, in a concurrent fashion, each of the collaborators is able to make changes to the note or even edit the changes made by other collaborators. In addition, a separate list of collaborators can be specified at the note level to override the list of collaborators at the notebook level, so that different notes within the same notebook can be associated with different sets of collaborators.
[0038] In each workspace A, B . . . N, when an action is performed on a work item by a given user or any other activity is detected in the workspace, other users in the same workspace can be notified (e.g., in real time or in near real time, or not in real time). Activities which trigger real time notifications can include, by way of example but not limitation, adding, deleting, or modifying collaborators in the workspace, uploading, downloading, adding, deleting a work item in the workspace, creating a discussion topic in the workspace.
[0039] In some embodiments, items or content downloaded or edited can cause notifications to be generated. Such notifications can be sent to relevant users to notify them of actions surrounding a download, an edit, a change, a modification, a new file, a conflicting version, an upload of an edited or modified file.
[0040] In one embodiment, in a user interface to the web-based collaboration platform where notifications are presented, users can, via the same interface, create action items (e.g., tasks) and delegate the action items to other users including collaborators pertaining to a work item 215, for example. The collaborators 206 can be in the same workspace A 205 and can invite a new collaborator to join the workspace, for example. Similarly, in the same user interface where discussion topics can be created in a workspace (e.g., workspace A, B or N, etc.), actionable events on work items can be created and/or delegated/assigned to other users such as collaborators of a given workspace 206 or other users. Through the same user interface, task status and updates from multiple users or collaborators can be indicated and reflected. In some instances, the users can perform the tasks (e.g., review or approve or reject, etc.) via the same user interface.
Synchronization Client
[0041] The collaboration platform offers a synchronization client that runs on a client device to perform synchronization of folders and files between a location on the collaboration platform and a location on the client device. The synchronization client offers user interfaces that may be accessed directly from the client device or through the web. It informs a user of the status of synchronization processes and allows a user to choose various options depending on the informed status, thus making the synchronization process efficient and user-friendly.
[0042] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating example components of the synchronization client. In some embodiments, the synchronization client comprises an entry module 302, a synchronization module 304, a configuration module 306, and a network module 308.
[0043] As used herein, a “module” or the like includes a general purpose, dedicated or shared processor and, typically, firmware or software modules that are executed by the processor. Depending upon implementation-specific or other considerations, the module can be centralized or its functionality distributed. The module or the like can include general or special purpose hardware, firmware, or software embodied in a computer-readable (storage) medium for execution by the processor.
[0044] As used herein, a computer-readable medium or computer-readable storage medium is intended to include all mediums that are statutory (e.g., in the United States, under 35 U.S.C. 101), and to specifically exclude all mediums that are non-statutory in nature to the extent that the exclusion is necessary for a claim that includes the computer-readable (storage) medium to be valid. Known statutory computer-readable mediums include hardware (e.g., registers, random access memory (RAM), non-volatile (NV) storage, to name a few), but may or may not be limited to hardware.
[0045] The network interface 308 can be a networking module that enables the host server to mediate data in a network with an entity that is external to the host server, through any known and/or convenient communications protocol supported by the host server and the external entity. The network interface 308 can communicate with one or more of a network adaptor card, a wireless network interface card (e.g., SMS interface, Wi-Fi interface, interfaces for various generations of mobile communication standards including but not limited to 1G, 2G, 3G, 3.5G, 4G, LTE, etc.), Bluetooth, a router, an access point, a wireless router, a switch, a multilayer switch, a protocol converter, a gateway, a bridge, a bridge router, a hub, a digital media receiver, and/or a repeater.
[0046] The entry module 302 manages sign-up, login-in, log-out and tutorial tasks. FIGS. 4A-C are diagrams illustrating an example user interface for performing sign-up, login-in, log-out and tutorial tasks. The user interface allows a user to sign up for the synchronization client, log in to the synchronization client, and take a tour of the synchronization client by choosing the options 402, 404 and 406 and interacting with the screens 408, 410 and 412, respectively. The three options may continue to be displayed as the synchronization client is running.
[0047] For the sign-up and login-in tasks, the entry module 302 may accept a username and a password from a user. It may respond to unacceptable or incorrect user names or passwords and optionally apply the CAPTCHA technique. For the login-in task, the entry module 302 may also apply the OAuth technique or the Single Sign On (SSO) technique in addition to accepting the username and password for two-factor authentication. In applying these techniques, the entry module 302 may display a dialog requesting a user to grant permission to the synchronization client for accessing resources on a user's local computer, or send email requesting a user to confirm the log-in by following a URL.
[0048] Upon a successful login, the entry module 302 may store a token to indicate the success of the OAuth or SSO technique and keep the token alive for all future login-ins within a predetermined period of time, such as two weeks or a month. The entry module 302 may also perform different actions depending on whether the current user is the same as the last user. Specifically, it may work with a folder of a fixed name, such as “Box Sync”, in a fixed location on the collaboration platform. It may then reuse the folder if the current user is the same as the last user. It may also create the folder if that folder does not already exist or if the current user is different from the last user. In the latter case, if the folder already exists, it may rename that existing folder before creating a new one and show a warning message to that effect.
[0049] For the log-out task initiated by a user or caused by the expiration of a token, the entry module 302 may preserve all the data created since the log-in. It may also display a message indicating that a user is no longer connected to the synchronization client.
[0050] The synchronization module 304 manages file synchronization between the collaboration platform and other devices. Specifically, it enables the replication of folders and files in a location on the collaboration platform (“collaboration location” hereinafter) to a location on a device designated by a user (“local location” hereinafter), and synchronization of those folders and files between the two locations in real time. The synchronization module 304 may allow a user to select the collaboration location and the local location. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example user interface for accepting a user's selection of folders. The user interface displays the list of folders available in a predetermined collaboration location in 502 and allows a user to check off those folders to be replicated to a predetermined local location. It also allows a user to choose a different local location via 504.
[0051] During synchronization, the synchronization module 304 may keep a user informed through various status report mechanisms. In some embodiments, the synchronization module 304 may automatically present a user interface for real-time synchronization status update. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example user interface for showing the progress of synchronization. The user interface displays the time remaining until the end of synchronization in 602, the number of files left to synchronize in 604, and the number of files already synchronized in this synchronization process in 606.
[0052] In some embodiments, the synchronization module 304 may allow a user to invoke a user interface to view summary information regarding ongoing or recent synchronization and take further actions. FIGS. 7A-C are diagrams illustrating an example user interface with three areas for showing summary information in terms issues, conflicts and updates. In FIG. 7A , the user interface shows an “issues” tab listing the issues which have halted a synchronization process, such as an unsupported file format or filename. With respect to some of the issues, the user interface may allow a user to resume or restart the process after the issue is resolved, as in 702. In FIG. 7B , the user interface shows a “conflicts” tab listing the conflicts that were present between the folders and files in the collaboration location and those in the local location. As one example, the user interface may display a message stating that a conflict was resolved by renaming one of the conflicting files. As another example, it may separately show a list of conflicting files with details such as the file name, creation date, modification date, size, etc. The user interface may allow a user to review a conflicting file, as in 704. In FIG. 7C , the user interface shows a “recent updates” tab listing recent file updates requiring synchronization, such edits or creations. The user interface may allow a user to review an updated file, as in 706.
[0053] In some embodiments, the synchronization module 304 may automatically present a user interface for system-wide status update. As an example, the synchronization module 304 may display icons in an administrative area on a screen of a user's device, such as in the system tray for Windows and in the menu/status bar for Mac. Specifically, it may map the icons to predefined states, including “complete”, “in progress”, “paused”, “insecure”, and “offline”. The “complete” state indicates that that the synchronization client is running yet with no synchronization in progress for a user, the “in progress” state indicates that synchronization is in progress for a user, the “paused” state indicates that synchronization is on hold for a user, the “insecure” state indicates that synchronization is stopped for a user, at the user's instruction or due to an unforeseen security breach on the collaboration platform, for example, and the “offline” state indicates that that the synchronization is no longer running (although the user is still connected to the collaboration platform).
[0054] Further according to the example, the synchronization module 304 may allow a user to click on each of the icons to take further actions and present the list of further actions via a drop-down menu. FIGS. 8A-E are diagrams illustrating an example user interface displaying state-specific options. The user interface presents a drop-down menu offering common options across the states, such as exploring the collaboration location in 802, reviewing user preferences in 804 and quitting the synchronization client in 806. The drop-down menu also shows state-specific messages when available, such as a summary of an ongoing synchronization process including information on errors occurred so far for the “in progress” state in 808, and offers state-specific options. In FIG. 8A , the user interface shows the drop-down menu for the “complete” state. In FIG. 8B , the user interface shows the drop-down menu for the “in progress” state, which includes an option to pause an ongoing synchronization process in 810. In FIG. 8C , the user interface shows the drop-down menu for the “paused” state, which includes an option to resume a paused synchronization process in 812. In FIG. 8D , the user interface shows the drop-down menu for the “insecure” state, which includes an option to restart a stopped synchronization process. In FIG. 8E , the user interface shows the drop-down menu for the “offline” state, which includes an option to log in to the synchronization client.
[0055] In some embodiments, the synchronization module 304 may automatically display a status indicator together with a representation of a folder or a file, within a file explorer running on the collaboration platform or on the user's local device, to indicate a status of the folder or the file. For example, the synchronization module 304 may display an icon to indicate whether a folder or a file is shared (collaborative) or private, whether it is locked (checked out) or unlocked, and whether it is already synchronized, being synchronized, not synchronizable, or to be ignored. The icon could show one of these statuses at a time or more than one of them at the same time. Furthermore, the synchronization module 304 may follow a cascading rule in displaying the icons in that the icon for a folder should reflect an aggregate status over all the files in the folder. For example, it may display an “already synchronized” icon for a folder only when it is not displaying a “being synchronized” icon for any of the files in the folder.
[0056] The configuration module 306 manages the configuration of the synchronization client according to a user's preferences. In some embodiments, the configuration module 306 may display a user's account information. FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example user interface displaying a user's account information. The user interface shows the account identification and type in 902, the amount of storage available and used on the collaboration platform in 904, and the amount of storage available and used on the user's local device in 906.
[0057] In some embodiments, the configuration module 306 may allow a user to customize synchronization settings. FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example user interface for managing a user's synchronization settings. The user interface displays the current local location, and it allows a user to switch to a new local location from scratch via 1002 or move to a new local location with all the folders and files transferred via 1004. The user interface allows a user to specify the required download rate which applies to synchronization from the collaboration location to the local location and the required upload rate which applies to synchronization in the other direction in 1006. In addition, the user interface allows a user to indicate whether to receive real-time notifications that pop up on the user's desktop in 1008 and the default language to use in 1010.
[0058] In some embodiments, the configuration module 306 may display help and administration information to a user. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example user interface for displaying help and administration information. The user interface directs a user to help articles and allows a user to report problems in 1102. It allows a user to indicate whether to send diagnostics information to the collaboration platform in 1104. It also displays version and copyright information in 1106.
[0059] FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating example transitions of a synchronization process. The synchronization client is in the “complete” state at block 1202, with no synchronization in progress. Once a synchronization process is started, the synchronization client goes into the “in progress” state at block 1204. The process may then be paused, and the synchronization client goes into the “paused” state at block 1206. Subsequently, the process may be resumed, which then takes the synchronization client back to the “in progress” state at block 1204. When the process is in progress or paused, it may then be stopped, and the synchronization client goes into the “insecure” state at lock 1210, which would then require a user's attention to clear the error and possibly restart the process. When the process is completed without errors or other interruptions, the synchronization client goes back to the “complete” state.
[0060] FIG. 13 shows a diagrammatic representation of a machine in the example form of a computer system within which a set of instructions, for causing the machine to perform any one or more of the methodologies discussed herein, may be executed.
[0061] In alternative embodiments, the machine operates as a standalone device or may be connected (e.g., networked) to other machines. In a networked deployment, the machine may operate in the capacity of a server or a client machine in a client-server network environment, or as a peer machine in a peer-to-peer (or distributed) network environment.
