Abstract: Systems and methods dynamically adapt network policies for mobile devices by accessing context-based values to allocate or restrict capabilities on the mobile devices or within the network. Context-based values may include position or velocity as well as more general environment features such as proximity of other devices, the presence or absence of other wireless signals or network traffic, parameters measured by local or remote sensors, user credentials, or unique user or signal inputs to the device. Relevant capabilities may include access to hardware and software interfaces and related parameter sets including priority settings.

Abstract: An application executed on a first device presents a user interface on a device display. The application is associated with a validation system used by the device. Based on receiving a first user input, the application controls the first device to scan, using a first communication protocol, for other devices that are located within a first communication range of the first device. Based on the scan, the application discovers a second device located within the first communication range of the first device. The application receives, from the second device, an identification information that uniquely identifies a user associated with the second device on the validation system. The application validates the identification information by communicating with a validation server. Based on validating the identification information, the application displays an indication that the second device associated with the user is located within the first communication range of the first device.
