  • Apparatus and method for context-aware mobile data management
    Patent number: 9900398
    Abstract: The context of a first electronic device is automatically determined, and the first electronic device has a display unit. Information is displayed at the display unit based upon the context. The context is transmitted from the first electronic device to a second electronic device, and from the first electronic device and to a third electronic device. A first consistency of information is maintained between the first electronic device and a second electronic device based at least upon the context, and a second consistency is maintained between the first electronic device and a third electronic device based at least upon the context. The first consistency is greater than the second consistency.

  • Apparatus and method for context-aware mobile data management
    Patent number: 9392073
    Abstract: A context of a mobile device is determined. A context preference of a user associated with the mobile device is determined. The context of the mobile device and the user context preference is transmitted to another node and responsively returned data is received. Available free space in the mobile device is determined. All data whose timestamp is within a predetermined threshold is cached. The data is cached in at least a portion of the free space.
