+ Significant issues
+ * TCBE will hold a local copy of all concepts/relationships and record the editing operations(adding,changing,deleting) for each concept or relationship. These editing operations will be updated to the data source at the same time as a whole. This could improve the performance and save time by avoiding access the database frequently, especially when internet transfer is involved.
