Multi-modal device power/mode management
First Claim
1. A system that facilitates power/mode management in a portable multi-modal device, comprising:
- a context determination component that establishes a context of the portable multi-modal device; and
a power/mode management component that masks a subset of a plurality of resources available to the portable multi-modal device based at least in part upon the context.

Abstract
A system that facilitates managing resources (e.g., functionality, services) based at least in part upon an established context. More particularly, a context determination component can be employed to establish a context by processing sensor inputs or learning/inferring a user action/preference. Once the context is established via context determination component, a power/mode management component can be employed to activate and/or mask resources in accordance with the established context. The power and mode management of the device can extend life of a power source (e.g., battery) and mask functionality in accordance with a user and/or device state.
