Remote processing device management
First Claim
1. A method for remote management of a first processing device, the method comprising:
- detecting and occurrence of an event on the first processing device;
generating an alert message in response to the detecting of the occurrence of the event, the alert message including at least one selectable item corresponding to an alert action, the alert message being context-sensitive based on a context in which the alert message is generated;
transmitting the alert message to a second processing device;
receiving, responsive to the transmitting of the alert, a message from the second processing device including an indication of a selected one of the at least one selectable item selected by a user of the second processing device; and
executing, on the first processing device, a predefined set of instructions associated with an alert action represented by the selected one of the at least one selectable item in response to the receiving of the message from the second processing device.

Abstract
In various embodiments, a first processing device may detect an occurrence of an event associated with an alert message. The alert message may include at least one selectable item and may be generated by the first processing device and transmitted to a second processing device. The second processing device may receive the alert message and may present the alert message including the at least one selectable action. A user of the second processing device may select one of the at least one selectable action and a message including an indication of the selected one of the at least one selectable message may be sent to the first processing device. The first processing device may receive the message and may execute a set of instructions corresponding to an alert action represented by the selected one of the at least one selectable message.

8. A method for preparing a first processing device for remote management, the method comprising:
-
placing a set of instructions on the first processing device, the set of instructions to be executed by the first processing device upon receiving a message including an indication of a selected one of at least one selectable item from a second processing device; and defining an alert message to be generated and sent to the second processing device upon detecting an occurrence of an event on the first processing device, the alert message including the at least one selectable item to be presented at the second processing device, one of the at least one selectable item corresponding to an alert action associated with the corresponding set of instructions placed on the first processing device. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A processing device comprising:
-
at least one processor; a memory including instructions for the at least one processor; and a bus connecting the at least one processor with the memory, the memory comprising; instructions for receiving an alert message from a different processing device, the alert message indicating an occurrence of an event at the different processing device and including at least one selectable item representing an alert action to be taken by the different processing device, the received alert message being context-sensitive with respect to a context in which the alert message was generated, instructions for permitting a user to select one of the at least selectable item from the alert, and instructions for sending a corresponding message to the different processing device in response to the user selecting the one of the at least one selectable item, the receiving of the corresponding message at the different processing device causing the alert action to be executed by the different processing device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
