中文摘要

隨著網際網路以及無線技術的成熟，大眾可以透過許許多多的電子裝置來管理個人資料。然而，各種不同架構的電子裝置，與平台間的差異，卻會增加在個人資料管理上的困難與複雜。為了要解決這個問題，我們利用了XML-RPC這項技術，建構了一套個人資訊管理架構。XML-RPC是一種可以透過網路，執行遠端程序呼叫的技術，而透過本身XML文件跨平台的特性，這些呼叫將可以在不同的作業系統，或者是異質的環境下執行。而除了在前端電子裝置的設計上，我們在後端建構了一個資訊伺服器，利用這個伺服器來提供集中式的資料管理，以及與前端各項電子裝置的同步動作。整個系統將提供一套方便且容易操作的機制，讓使用者能夠容易的管理與同步個人資料。除此之外，我們也設計了群組的功能與設定，讓在同一群組的使用者能夠方便的共享個人資料。

Abstract
As the Internet and wireless technologies become mature, people may use more than one digital device to manage their personal data. However, the complexities and difficulties in personal information management will arise due to various devices and heterogeneous platforms. To cope with this problem, we design an intelligent architecture for personal information management based on the XML-RPC technology, which allows the software running on disparate operating systems and in different environments to make procedure calls over the Internet. We also implement an information server to manage the whole data and handle the synchronization process. The system provides users a simple and convenient environment to manage and synchronize their personal information. Besides, the group facility in this system makes the people in the same group or community capable of sharing their information more easily.
