METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR SAVING AND RESUMING A STATE OF A COLLABORATIVE INTERACTION SESSION BETWEEN DEVICES BASED ON THEIR POSITIONAL RELATIONSHIP
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a processor, in an instance in which a first device and at least one second device are engaged in a collaborative interaction session, a first positional relationship between the first device and the at least one second device;
receiving an indication of termination of the collaborative interaction session between the first device and the at least one second device;
determining the collaborative interaction session state;
causing the collaborative interaction session state to be stored;
determining a second positional relationship between the first device and the at least one second device; and
causing the collaborative interaction session between the first device and the at least one second device to resume at the stored collaborative interaction session state based upon a relationship between the first positional relationship and the second positional relationship.

Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are herein provided for saving and resuming a state of a collaborative interaction session between devices based on the positional relationship of the devices. A method may include determining, in an instance in which a first device and at least one second device are engaged in a collaborative interaction session, a first positional relationship. The method may further include receiving an indication of termination of the collaborative interaction session, determining the collaborative interaction session state and causing that state to be stored. The method may further include determining a second positional relationship and causing the collaborative interaction session to resume at the stored collaborative interaction session state based upon a relationship between the first positional relationship and the second positional relationship. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.

19. Computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium having program code portions means stored thereon, the program code portions being a computer readable medium and configured when said program product is run on a computer or network device, to:
-
determine, in an instance in which a first device and at least one second device are engaged in a collaborative interaction session, a first positional relationship between the first device and the at least one second device; receive an indication of termination of the collaborative interaction session between the first device and the at least one second device; determine the collaborative interaction session state; cause the collaborative interaction session state to be stored; determine a second positional relationship between the first device and the at least one second device; and cause the collaborative interaction session between the first device and the at least one second device to resume at the stored collaborative interaction session state based upon a relationship between the first positional relationship and the second positional relationship. - View Dependent Claims (20)
