Providing Sensor-Application Services
First Claim
1. A method comprising, by one or more computer systems:
- receiving at a sensor-application-service provider a plurality of sensor data from a plurality of sensors associated with a plurality of persons, the sensor data having been aggregated together downstream from the sensor-application-service provider based on the association of the sensors with the persons and routed to the application provider based on an association of the persons with the sensor-application-service provider;
based on a service information model at the sensor-application-service provider;
determining whether the sensor data are valid;
for the sensor data that are valid;
applying to the sensor data one or more terms of one or more service agreements between the sensor-application-service provider and the persons associated with the sensor data;
determining one or more amounts to bill or compensate the persons associated with the sensor data or others for processing of the sensor data at the sensor-application-service provider to provide a sensor-application service; and
providing the sensor-application service to the persons associated with the sensor data or to others.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving at a sensor-application-service provider sensor data from sensors associated with persons. The method includes, based on a service information model at the sensor-application-service provider, determining whether the sensor data are valid and, for the sensor data that are valid applying to the sensor data one or more terms of one or more service agreements between the sensor-application-service provider and the persons associated with the sensor data, determining one or more amounts to bill or compensate the persons associated with the sensor data or others for processing of the sensor data at the sensor-application-service provider to provide a sensor-application service, and providing the sensor-application service to the persons associated with the sensor data or to others.
