ABSTRACT:
A system and method for providing dynamically shared documents to multiple computing devices. In a preferred embodiment, the system includes a hub and a plurality of computing devices in physical proximity with the hub. Each of the plurality of computing devices communicates with the hub via a wireless connection. The hub acts as a pass-through device receiving and transmitting requests from a requesting computing device to other computing devices and receiving and transmitting answers from the other computing devices to the requesting computing device. Each computing device translates requests and shared documents into a system independent language before transmitting the request of the document to the hub and each computing device translates received documents from the system independent language into a data format preferred by that particular computing device. Thus, documents may be securely shared between computing devices having different operating systems and data formats without having a physical network connection. Furthermore, the hub is portable, thus allowing the sharing of documents at any location in which several users have gathered for a meeting.
