Workflow decision management with intermediate message validation
First Claim
1. A method for workflow decision management, the method comprising:
- maintaining a device state history;
identifying a device usage pattern in dependence upon the device state history;
identifying a workflow scenario in dependence upon the device usage pattern;
identifying a workflow in dependence upon the workflow scenario;
executing the workflow including;
sending, to an intermediate message validation service, a message to be forwarded to a device to administer at least one value of an attribute of the device;
determining, by the intermediate message validation service, that the message is valid; and
forwarding, by the intermediate message validation service, the valid message to the device.
