Abstract

This paper describes a solution for data synchronization, mobile offline capabilities, and network bandwidth optimization by utilizing a native smart device app as a distributed storage system. The solution aggregates the best practices in business and academic research to achieve a reduction in redundant data transfer and an ability to work offline in smart devices.
