摘要: This invention relates to file updating methods, and more particularly methods for files stored on Read-Only media. To represent modifications a set of data objects the method according present comprises generating baseline first version objects; identifying differences between second update information corresponding identified differences, said including references segmented portions that correspond regardless location in baseline; storing whereby may be retrieved used generate from objects.
