A mechanism is provided whereby a parent, or other second party, can monitor and/or control a child's or other first party's wireless device usage. An interface can allow the parent to set rules for the child's usage, and can specify that the parent should receive messages when a call is made to or from the child's wireless device. In addition to call information, the message may prompt the parent for approval of the call connection. Thus, a parent can decide whether a call that is incoming from or outgoing to a third party should be permitted.

Information about SCI transactions may include, for example, time, date, originator information, transaction ID, destination information, message information, SCI functions accessed by the originator, errors, and any other function or process performed by the SCI.
摘要:
A system for locating a device in a wireless network that caches a known location and estimates a location at a given time based on a speed at which the device is moving. The system initially determines plural locations and determines the speed from location. The speed and location information is stored in a cache. The system also includes a mechanism to query the cache. The system extrapolates an estimated location of the device based on the time of the query and speed of the device. Route information may be factored into the determination to account for traffic, transit or travel itinerary.

Methods and wireless devices for providing secure operation of a vehicle. In one such method, a key for accessing a vehicle is detected, a vehicle operation policy associated with the key is retrieved, and operation of the vehicle consistent with the vehicle operation policy is permitted. The key may be embedded within a wireless device such as a cellular telephone. The vehicle operation policy may include an access control rule that may indicate to enable, partially enable, or disable a vehicle operation feature. Where the intended operation of the vehicle is not consistent with the access control rule, the operation may not be permitted and an enforcement action may be taken, such as disabling a feature of the vehicle.
