Abstract: Configuring device data streams (DDSs) of a mobile device is described herein. DDSs can include sensor data (captured from one or more sensors of the mobile device) and user-specific data (including application data from applications executed via the mobile device, as well as non-application data). DDS configuration parameters define modifications for the user-specific data and/or the sensor data of the DDS; these modifications can include removing or altering the user-specific data and/or the sensor data. DDSs can be sent to an external storage device via a network, and DDS modifications can be made at the mobile device or at the external storage device. Modified DDSs can be provided to requestors, and thus, the DDS configuration parameters allow a user to control what data is, or is not, included in a DDS for reasons related to privacy, data usage, etc.

Abstract: A remote server facilitates discovery and communication between multiple applications running in respective sandboxes on the same hardware processing device. The remote server determines that the applications are running on the same processing device based on data received from each of the applications. The determination that the applications are running on the same device may include matching corresponding items of information received in data streams from each the applications. The server then transmits, to one of the applications, the identity of each of the applications that have been determined to be running on the processing device. The server then receives a message from the one of the applications to be delivered to another one of the applications that has been determined to be running on the processing device. The server then transmits the message to said other one of the applications, enabling communication of the message between the applications.
