A system is provided for servicing requests by a mobile controller to utilize stationary or mobile resources present within a partitioned communication cell such as an office or room in a building. The mobile controller has a control signal mechanism for generating control request signals to modify behavior of the stationary or mobile resource, with the range of the control request signals substantially limited to the partitioned communication cell. A room agent receives and acts upon the control request signals after dynamically determining availability of both mobile resources entering and exiting the partitioned communication cell and stationary resources already present in the partitioned communication cell. In operation, the room agent is configured to grant requests for utilization of mobile and stationary resources located within the partitioned communication cell when predetermined contextual attributes within the partitioned communication cell are consistent with previously specified interaction policies.
