Abstract
This specification discloses a method of reminding the assignment deadlines used in an electronic device and a connected host. The procedure is as follows: first, data are entered into the host; the host processes scheduling according to the data to obtain an assignment deadline reminder schedule; the host checks whether a scheduled reminding time in the assignment deadline reminder schedule is up; then the host transfers a reminder command to the electronic device; the electronic device shows the assignment deadline according to the command; and finally the electronic device deletes the assignment deadline reminder. The invention is thus capable of making assignment deadline reminders much easier.
