`
`ABSTRACT
`
`A method for the managementofdata collected from a remote
`computing device including the steps of: creating a question-
`naire; transmitting the questionnaire to a remote computer;
`executing the questionnaire in the remote computer to prompt
`a user for responses to questions of the questionnaire; trans-
`mitting the responses to a sever via a network; making the
`responsesavailable on the Web. Preferably, computers used in
`connection with the inventive methodare loosely networked
`in that network connections between computers are not
`alwaysavailable and, when a connectionis notavailable, data
`is stored at a node of the network and transmitted at the
`
`earliest time when a connectionis available. In one preferred
`embodiment, the inventive method is used to collect survey
`data and to make the responses to the survey available to a
`client in virtually real time over the Internet.
