Abstract: A server arrangement for managing observation data of wireless devices, including data input logic for obtaining observation data from wireless devices, the obtained data including behavioral and contextual raw data relative to the wireless devices, data mining logic for establishing a number of derived data elements, on the basis of processing and analyzing the obtained observation and optional supplementary data, the processing and analyzing incorporating aggregation procedures. At least one derived data element includes usage metrics with contextual dimension relative to applications or other features of wireless devices and users, data storage for storing the obtained data and the number of derived information elements, and a data distribution logic providing derived data. The distribution logic may serve a data query constructed by an external entity through provision of derived information from derived data elements according to the query parameters.
Abstract: A mobile terminal for providing life observations including: a processing entity, memory, a wireless transceiver for wirelessly transmitting and receiving data relative to external entities, an observation logic conducting active and passive observations detectable relative the mobile terminal in response to active and passive triggers, respectively, each active trigger being associated with a triggering rule for conducting a related observation, each passive trigger being associated with a change in the observation environment, the occurrence of which in the mobile terminal triggers conducting the observation linked to the passive trigger, and a data handling logic for storing, analyzing, and aggregating observation data points of the gathered observation data to timed observation data transmissions via the wireless transceiver towards an external entity.
