Abstract:
A method for synchronizing processors in a telecommunication system, comprising the steps of:a first processor unit retrieving a current value of a change counter associated with a second processor unit, a first database associated with said first processor unit to be synchronized with a second database associated with said second processor unit; said first processor unit storing said current value of said change counter; said first processor unit retrieving a substantial portion of data stored in said second database; said first processor performing a synchronization procedure for said substantial portion of all data retrieved said second processor unit incrementing said change counter for a change of said data stored in said second database; said second processor unit determining whether new data has been stored in said second database; if said new data has been stored in said second database, sending a unique identifier associated with said new data to said first processor unit; and sending said current value of said change counter to said first processor unit.
