The present invention is directed to a method and system for use on a computer for uploading information from a client to a server by describing on the client side, a text file which identifies and describes files to be uploaded, along with other information to be passed between both systems. The present invention further allows the destination to refine the contents of the text file, to identify the files that the server requires, or to further specify how to transform any other related data. The source, client is then able to read this refined information and accordingly upload information to the server.

We claim: 1. A method for transferring data to a destination computing device, comprising: receiving, by the destination computing device, a request from a source computing device to upload one or more portions of a data file located on the source computing device to the destination computing device; accessing, by the destination computing device, an information file received from the source computing device that is associated with the one or more portions of the data file, the information file containing one or more metadata descriptors of the one or more portions of the data file to be uploaded; determining, by the destination computing device, based on the one or more metadata descriptors, one or more portions of the data file needed to be uploaded to the destination computing device to perform a desired task; modifying, by the destination computing device, at least one of the one or more metadata descriptors to create a modified information file, the modified information file specifying the one or more determined portions of the data file; and obtaining from the source computing device, by the destination computing device, the one or more determined portions of the data file as specified by the modified information file. 2. The method recited in claim 1, wherein the modified information file instructs the source computing device to perform an operation on the data file, wherein the instruction is specified as an entry in the modified information file by the destination computing device. 3. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein modifying the information file includes a modification of a reference in the information file to the data file. 4. The method as recited in claim 3, wherein the modification is a removal of the reference to the data file from the information file, to prevent an upload of the data file and portions thereof. 5. The method as recited in claim 3, wherein the modification of the information file is a modification of one or more characteristics of one or more pictures that is to be transferred from the source computing device to the destination computing device for use in performing a task on the one or more pictures. 6. The method as recited in claim 5, wherein the modification of the information file is a specification of any needed transformation requirements to the one or more pictures. 7. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein the information file is a manifest. 8. The method as recited in claim 1 wherein the information file is a text file conforming to an XML schema. 9. A computer system having a processor, a memory and an operating environment, the computer system operable to execute the method recited in claim 1. 10. A computer readable storage medium executable instructions for performing the method recited in claim 1. 11. A method for uploading data from a source computing device to a destination computing device, comprising: identifying a data file on the source computing device; generating an information file on the source computing device, wherein the information file is generated by the source computing device and contains one or more metadata descriptors relating to one or more portions of the data file; accessing, by the source computing device, a modified information file to identify one or more portions of the data file that are to be uploaded to the destination computing device, wherein the modified information file is a modified version of the information file, is created by the destination computing device, and specifies the one or more portions of the data file needed to be uploaded to the destination computing device to perform a desired task; and uploading the identified one or more portions of the data file to the destination computing device as specified by the modified information file. 12. The method as recited in claim 11, further comprising modifying one or more portions of the data file as specified by the modified information file before uploading to the destination computing device. 13. A computer system having a processor, a memory and an operating environment, the computer system operable to execute the method recited in claim 11. 14. A computer readable storage medium having computer executable instructions for performing the method recited in claim 11. 15. The method as recited in claim 11, further comprising downloading a script from the destination computing device, wherein the script accesses the information file to create the modified information file. 16. A method for use in a networked computing environment for securely uploading items from a source computing device to a destination computing device to allow the destination computing device to perform a desired task, comprising: assigning, on the source computing device, a unique identifier for each item to be uploaded and maintaining information of assigned pairs of the unique identifiers and each item on the source computing device; generating an information file containing at least one of the unique identifiers and one or more metadata descriptors of the items to be uploaded; accessing, by the source computing device, a modified information file to identify one or more items to be uploaded to the destination computing device, wherein the modified information file is a modified version of the information file, is created by the destination computing device, and specifies the one or more items needed to be uploaded to the destination computing device to perform a desired task; and uploading the identified one or more items as specified by the modified information file. 17. The method as recited in claim 16, wherein the information file is a textual description of file lists and file meta-data. 18. The method as recited in claim 16, wherein the information file is a non-textual description of file lists and file meta-data. 19. The method as recited in claim 16 wherein the information file is an XML based file describing the one or more items to be uploaded and meta-data about the items. 20. A computer system having a processor, a memory and an operating environment, the computer system operable to execute the method recited in claim 16. 21. A computer readable storage medium executable instructions for performing the method recited in claim 16. 22. The method as recited in claim 12, further comprising downloading a script from the destination computing device, wherein the script accesses the information file to create the modified information file.
