Abstract
A system for distributed concurrent version management. The system includes a first server, a second server, and a first client. The first server has a first database including a file. The second server has a second database including a file copy corresponding to the file, a data replication module, and a connection detection module. When the first client wants to replace the file copy in the second server with an updated file, the file copy is replaced by the updated file when the first server and the second server are connected. Then, the updated file is copied to the first server by the data replication module, and the file in the first database is replaced by the updated file.

A system for distributed concurrent version management, comprising:
- a first server having a first database including a file;
- a second server having a second database including a file copy corresponding to the file in the first database, a data replication module, and a connection detection module to detect the connection status between the first server and the second server;
- and
- a first client to replace the file copy in the second server with an updated file when the connection status is connected;
- wherein the updated file is copied to the first server by the data replication module in the second server and the file in the first database is replaced by the updated file.
A method for distributed concurrent version management for use in a system with a first server having a file, a second server having a copy corresponding to the file and a first client, comprising the steps of:
- detecting the connection status between the first server and the second server;
- replacing the file copy with an updated file from the first client when the connection status is connected;
- and
- copying the updated file to the first server by the second server and replacing the file with the updated file.
