Abstract:
Disclosed are systems and methods to optimize a rules engine as a platform within a computing system. The computing system may identify a context of interest, such as environment or circumstance of the computing system or a user of the computing system. Based on the identified context of interest, the rules engine platform may selectively identify rules or sets of rules that are relevant to the context of interest. Accordingly, rules or sets of rules that are irrelevant to the context of interest may be omitted from evaluation. Therefore, resources of the computing system may not consumed in some embodiments by resolving conflicts between rules and evaluating rules that result in actions that are not suitable for the context of interest.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses and articles of manufacture for use in a mobile device to determine whether a dynamic user profile is to transition from a first state to a second state based, at least in part, on one or more sensed indicators. The dynamic user profile may be indicative of one or more current inferable user behavior contexts for a user co-located with the mobile device. The mobile device may transition a dynamic user profile from a first state to a second state, in response to a determination that the dynamic user profile is to transition from the first state to the second state, and operatively affect one or more functions performed, at least in part, by the mobile device based, at least in part, on the transition of the dynamic user profile to the second state.
