METHOD AND APPARATUS THAT COLLECT AND UPLOADS IMPLICIT ANALYTIC DATA
First Claim
1. A method of collecting and uploading implicit analytic data, the method comprising the steps of:
- storing dependency rules corresponding explicit events to implicit events;
collecting, at a communication device, implicit event data corresponding to implicit events;
receiving an explicit event at the communication device;
evaluating dependency rules corresponding to the explicit event;
identifying a relevant subset of implicit event data corresponding to the explicit event based on evaluating the dependency rules; and
uploading, from the communication device, the relevant subset of the implicit event data and explicit event data corresponding to the explicit event.

Abstract
A method (300) and apparatus (110, 150) collect and upload implicit analytic data. The method can include storing (320) dependency rules corresponding explicit events to implicit events. The method can include collecting (330) and storing (340) implicit event data corresponding to implicit events. The method can include receiving (350) an explicit event at the device. The method can include evaluating (360) dependency rules corresponding to the explicit event. The method can include identifying (370) a relevant subset of implicit event data corresponding to the explicit event based on evaluating the dependency rules. The method can include uploading (390) the relevant subset of the implicit event data and explicit event data corresponding to the explicit event.

storing dependency rules corresponding explicit events to implicit events; collecting, at a communication device, implicit event data corresponding to implicit events; receiving an explicit event at the communication device; evaluating dependency rules corresponding to the explicit event; identifying a relevant subset of implicit event data corresponding to the explicit event based on evaluating the dependency rules; and uploading, from the communication device, the relevant subset of the implicit event data and explicit event data corresponding to the explicit event. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. An apparatus that collects and uploads implicit analytic data, the apparatus comprising:
-
a controller configured to control operations of the apparatus and configured to collect implicit event data corresponding to implicit events; a memory coupled to the controller, the memory configured to store dependency rules that correspond explicit events to implicit event data; a user interface configured to receive an explicit event; a device activity manager coupled to the controller, the device activity manager configured to evaluate dependency rules corresponding to the explicit event, and configured to identify a relevant subset of implicit event data corresponding to the explicit event based on evaluating the dependency rules; and a transceiver configured to upload, from the apparatus, the relevant subset of the implicit event data and upload explicit event data corresponding to the explicit event. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A method of collecting and uploading implicit analytic data, the method comprising the steps of:
-
storing dependency rules at a device activity management server, where the dependency rules identify a relevant subset of implicit event data corresponding to an explicit event at a user device; receiving, at the device activity management server, implicit event data corresponding to implicit events, where the implicit event data is collected at at least one user device; personalizing the dependency rules based on implicit event data collected at the least one user device; and sending the dependency rules to the user device. - View Dependent Claims (27)
