IMPLEMENTING POLICIES IN RESPONSE TO PHYSICAL SITUATIONS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computerized method comprising:
- accessing sensor data, captured by a sensor monitoring a physical situation;
accessing a policy database including a plurality of policies to identify at least two lower-level policies associated with the physical situation;
accessing the policy database to identify at least one higher-level policy associated with the physical situation; and
controlling implementation of the at least two lower-level policies based on the higher-level policy.

Abstract
A method and apparatus is described to implement policies associated with physical situations (e.g., supply of power, occurrence of a fire, etc.). The method may comprise accessing sensor data captured by a sensor monitoring a physical situation to identify at least one activity occurring during the physical situation. A policy database including a plurality of policies may be accessed to identify at least two lower-level policies associated with the physical situation. Further, the policy database may be accessed to identify at least one higher-level policy associated with the physical situation. The higher-level policy may control implementation of the at least two lower-level policies.

13. An apparatus comprising:
-
a data access module to access sensor data, captured by a sensor monitoring a physical situation; a policy access module to; access a policy database including a plurality of policies to identify at least two lower-level policies associated with the physical situation; and access the policy database to identify at least one higher-level policy associated with the physical situation; and a policy engine to control implementation of the at least two lower-level policies based on the higher-level policy. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. An apparatus comprising:
-
a data access module for accessing sensor data, captured by a sensor monitoring a real-time event, to identify at least one activity occurring during the real-time event; a policy access module for; accessing a policy database including a plurality of policies to identify at least two lower-level policies associated with the at least one activity; and accessing the policy database to identify at least one higher-level policy associated with the at least one activity; and means for controlling implementation of the at least two lower-level policies based on the higher-level policy.
