Abstract:
1. A method of synchronizing data retrieval with a plurality of data sources on a mobile computing device, comprising: establishing, by the mobile computing device, a connection with each of the plurality of data sources for a first synchronization interval; upon establishing the connection with each of the plurality of data sources, sending a synchronization request over the connection during the first synchronization interval; receiving a response comprising data to the synchronization request from one of the plurality of data sources during the first synchronization interval to synchronize the data, wherein the connection to the one of the plurality of data sources is severed after the data is received; re-establishing the severed connection with the one of the plurality of data sources for a second synchronization interval based on quality of service parameters associated with the one of the plurality of data sources and a pending connection status associated with at least one other data source in the plurality of data sources, the re-establishment of the severed connection with the one of the plurality of data sources for a second synchronization interval comprising: sending another synchronization request over the re-established severed connection.
