METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR COLLECTING CONTEXT FROM A DEVICE

摘要

A method and system for collecting new and undefined context from a device is provided. The method includes sending a context collection request generated at a server (102). The request is received at a device (104). The device (104) will determine the definition of the context to be collected, the requirement for context collection and the condition for collecting the context. The device (104) invokes services on itself or on a secondary device on the basis of the definition and condition specified in the context collection request. The requested context is derived based on response from the invoked services. The collected context will be sent to the server (102) as a context collection response.
