Abstract: Provided are techniques for providing context-based user assistance. A request from a user for user assistance content for a first configurable element is received. One or more rules are retrieved for the first configurable element, wherein at least one of the rules describes a second configurable element that is related to the first configurable element. The one or more rules are used to identify context-based user assistance content for configuring at least one of the first configurable element and the second configurable element. The user assistance content is provided to the user.

Abstract: A cellular telephone signal monitoring method and system. The method includes receiving and storing by a computing system from a first cellular telephone, a first profile associated with a first user of the first cellular telephone and first monitoring data associated with the first user and the first cellular telephone. The computing system receives and stores from a plurality of cellular telephones, first additional monitoring data associated with a plurality of users and the plurality of cellular telephone. The computing system analyzes the first monitoring data and the first additional monitoring data. The computing system generates a first analysis report based on results of the analyzing. The computing system transmits to the first cellular telephone and the plurality of cellular telephones the first analysis report.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for a user to program a personal software agent using an agent manager. The agent manager receives instructions for creating a rule. The rule is placed in a hierarchical order. A determination is made as to whether the rule is valid within the hierarchical order. If the rule is not valid, repairs are suggested to make the rule valid.
