    Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for managing a plurality of devices in a federated network and a sub-network within the federated network. The devices in the sub-network may have a functional capability of performing a function associated with the federated network. For example, the federated network may include devices for providing data content such as media content and the sub-network may include devices for controlling the presentation of the data content. In addition, a constellation of devices is provided that may share data content such as media data. At least some of the devices in the constellation may form a sub-network.

    Abstract: A method and system is provided for conducting a purchasing activity among federated devices in an ad hoc network. In one example, the purchasing activity is an auction. Devices may be identified for federating into the ad hoc network. The devices may be identified, for example, based on distance from an auction item or distance from a device of a seller of the auction item. Alternatively, the purchasing activity may include a bulk purchase in which user devices may federate into an ad hoc network for sharing costs of bulk items.

    Abstract translation: 提供了一种用于在自组织网络中的联合设备之间进行购买活动的方法和系统。 在一个例子中,购买活动是拍卖。 可以识别设备以联合到自组织网络。 可以例如基于与拍卖项目的距离或与拍卖项目的卖方的设备的距离来识别设备。 或者,购买活动可以包括批量购买,其中用户设备可以联合到自组织网络中以共享批量项目的成本。

    Abstract: A method and system is provided for capturing data from a population of device users with network access. A requestor may request a data capture. The requested data may include, for example, a geographical location or a desired subject matter. Devices capable of providing the requested data capture are identified and requested to provide the data. The devices may be identified based on location, capabilities, availability, etc. The data capture from the identified federated devices may be sent to the requestor. The data may be exchanged for a fee, determined by prearrangement or via an economic model such as a competitive auction.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for coordinating devices in a federated network of devices. A server may determine policies for coordinating the devices and may send messages to devices in the federated network for providing a service. The policies for providing the service among the federated devices may be based on properties of the devices or relative locations of the devices. For example, the federated devices may provide media data and control of the media data to a user. Provision of the media data and/or control of the media data may change from one device to another in the federated network based on policies from the server.

    Abstract translation: 提供了一种用于协调设备联合网络中的设备的方法和装置。 服务器可以确定用于协调设备的策略,并且可以向联合网络中的设备发送消息以提供服务。 在联合设备之间提供服务的策略可以基于设备的属性或设备的相对位置。 例如,联合设备可以向用户提供媒体数据和媒体数据的控制。 基于来自服务器的策略,提供媒体数据和/或媒体数据的控制可以在联合网络中从一个设备改变到另一个设备。

    Abstract: The present invention includes entity tracking, privacy assurance, and zone policy administration technologies allowing for the creation of zone policies, including the definition of zones and managed entities, the zone policies including rules that apply to the managed entities within or in relation to the zones, and privacy policies assuring privacy of sensitive data. The technologies also provide for the definition of sensors, rule event objects, and default event objects, and for the establishment of associations between rules and managed entities, sensors, and rule event objects so as to create zone policies. Event objects may generate zone policy events or actions upon compliance with or violation of various rules of zone policy. Managed entities are defined as entities associated with mobile devices capable of location tracking and communication with zone policy servers. Entities may be persons, vehicles, animals, or any other object for which tracking and zone policy administration is of value. Zone policy may include privacy policy that may restrict access to or set access conditions for data or information. Privacy policies may be used to ensure individual managed entities and their data remain anonymous to a desired degree and that sensitive data is appropriately protected.
