Patent number: 11102611Abstract: In an example implementation, a method of tracking a mobile device includes determining by a tracked device, that a pairing status between the tracked device and a command device has changed from a paired status to an unpaired status. A timer is started on the tracked device in response to determining the unpaired status, and in response to the timer reaching a threshold time, a distress packet is transmitted from the tracked device that indicates the tracked device is lost.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2019Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Syed S. Azam, Kent E. Biggs, Valentin Popescu

Publication number: 20170332034Abstract: According to an example, to output content to a display, content from a first source and a second source, via a radio, is received. The first content and the second content are combined on a processor into a single stream and output to a display. In an example, the second content is received from a server and combined with the first content in response to a user in proximity to the display. In an example, the received second content is modified in response to a change in the user proximity.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2014Publication date: November 16, 2017Inventors: Valentin POPESCU, Syed S.

Patent number: 8533775Abstract: A system and method for administering access to a central resource by a remote access device. A system includes a remote access device and a computer executing a hierarchical policy manager. The remote access device requests access to a central resource. The hierarchical policy manager determines a policy for allowing the device to access the resource by evaluating access policies at a plurality of precedence levels of a policy hierarchy. The hierarchical policy manager allows the device to access the resource based on the policy set at the highest precedence level of the policy hierarchy at which access control is specified.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2008Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Byron A.
