US Patent 7302529 Method for comparing contents of memory components

A method, system, device and software product for comparing the contents of memory components in electronic devices. A data transmission connection is established between the electronic devices, and device identifiers and checksum values are determined in the electronic devices. An initialization message is transmitted from a first electronic device to a second electronic device, the message comprising a device identifier and a checksum value. The device identifiers of the first and a second electronic device and the check-sum values are compared with each other, as a result of which the contents of the memory components are caused to correspond to each other, or the contents of the memory components are noted to correspond to each other.
