1. An apparatus to provide an always-on monitor, alert, control, and share (MACS) device comprising:
- a connection to receive intermittent updates from a real sensor device, the always-on virtual MACS device corresponding to the real sensor, monitor or device (SMD);
a presentation layer to enable a user to interface with the always-on virtual MACS device, the always-on virtual MACS device providing data regardless of a status of the real SMD.

13. A method to provide an always-on access to an intermittently connected sensor, monitor or device (SMD) comprising, at a server:
-
receiving updates from the SMD, at intermittent connection times; and
adding the updates to a constantly maintained, always-on monitoring, accessing, controlling, and sharing (MACS) device maintained within the server; and
providing access to the MACS device, which is a virtual reflection of the SMD, and is always accessible with the most current available data. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)
