Abstract:
1. A method for generating a compact update package between an old version of content and a new version of content, comprising: (i) generating, in a specifically programmed computer, a conversion element associated with said old version of content and new version of content and including one or more shift rules, wherein the one or more shift rules are applied while updating said old version of content to said new version of content; (ii) determining to which of said old version and said new version of content the conversion element is to be applied; (iii) generating a modified version by applying the conversion element to said determined old or new version of content; (iv) if said modified version is generated by applying the conversion element to the determined old version of content, generating a modified delta based on a comparison of at least said modified version and the new version; (v) if said modified version is generated by applying the conversion element to the determined new version of content, generating a modified delta based on a comparison of at least said modified version and the old version: and (vi) generating, by the specifically programmed computer, a compact update package including the generated conversion element and the generated modified delta.
