Abstract

A system and method for the encoding of schedule data on a computing device and the retrieval, sharing and presentation of the schedule data on mobile computing devices is presented. The recurrent static portion of the schedule data is encoded by the computing device in a first two dimensional barcode image. Dynamic event data is encoded by the computing device in a second two dimensional barcode image, the second image containing only numeric data. The first and second images are acquired for processing by the mobile computing device which may display the barcode images for subsequent acquisition and processing by a second mobile computing device.
