## Abstract

Disclosed is a system and method for managing XDM (XML Document Management) service information to improve management efficiency for OMA (Open Mobile Alliance) service information. The apparatus includes a controller for creating a shared User Resource Identifier (URI), and using a value created by the controller as a static value to be used as a newly-created reference handle for shared service information referred to by service information. The newly-created value is set as an unchanged value (i.e., it remains static until a corresponding element vanishes), thereby preventing signaling overhead, compatibility degradation, and resource waste due to modification of the shared service information.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An apparatus for managing XML Document Management (XDM) service information in an XDM client included in a user terminal of an Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) system, the apparatus comprising:
a controller for creating a shared User Resource Identifier (URI) list including a static reference handle value for indicating the shared URI list, in response to a request to create the shared URI list, transmitting the shared URI list to a shared XDM Server (XDMS) for storage as a reference for service information corresponding to a plurality of OMA services in accordance with the static reference handle value, changing at least one piece of the service information, and maintaining, at the shared XDMS, the static reference handle value for the shared URI list after the at least one piece of the service information is changed;
a receiving device for receiving the request to create the shared URI list and receiving an error message, if the XDM client proposes a creation of the shared URI list without the static reference handle value from an XDMS; and

a PoC XDMS for storing the PoC service information used to provide a PoC group service,
wherein the XDM client creates the PoC service information referring to the shared URI list by using the static reference handle value of the shared URI list, and transmits the PoC service information to the PoC XDMS.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The system of claim 6, further comprising:
an RLS (Resource List Server) XDMS for storing RLS service information,
wherein the XDM client creates the RLS service information referring to the shared URI list by using the static reference handle value of the shared URI list, and transmits the RLS service information to the RLS XDMS.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

The system of claim 6, wherein the XDM client transmits a changed content of the shared URI list to the shared XDMS upon receipt of a request to change the shared URI list.

### Claim 9 (depends on 6)

The system of claim 6, wherein the static reference handle value is randomly created.

### Claim 10

A method for managing XDM (XML Document Management) service information in an XDM client included in a user terminal of an Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) system, the method comprising:
receiving a request, at the XDM client, to create a shared URI (Uniform Reference Identifier) list to be stored in a shared XDM Server (XDMS);
receiving an error message, if the XDM client proposes a creation of the shared URI list without a static reference handle value from an XDMS;
creating, by the XDM client, the shared URI list including the static reference handle value for identifying the shared URI list, in response to the request;
transmitting the shared URI list from the XDM client to the shared XDMS for storage as a reference for service information corresponding to a plurality of OMA services in accordance with the static reference handle value;
changing at least one piece of the service information; and
maintaining, at the shared XDMS, the static reference handle value for the shared URI list after the at least one piece of the service information is changed,
wherein the service information is at least one of RLS (Resource List Server) service information, PoC (Push-to-Talk over Cellular) service information, and XDM service information, and
wherein the XDM client creates the PoC service information, used to provide a PoC group service, referring to the shared URI list by using the static reference handle value of the shared URI list, and transmits the PoC service information to a PoC XDMS.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The method of claim 10, wherein the static reference handle value is randomly created.

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

The method of claim 10, further comprising transmitting the created shared URI list to the shared XDM (XML Document Management) server.
