1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a session initiation indicator including associated contextual information from a proxy device, the contextual information regarding a context within which the proxy device operates as a client device with further devices which are communicatively coupled as peers with ox device through a network connection;
responsive to the session initiation indicator, transmitting a session identifier to the proxy device to facilitate an asset sharing session between the proxy device and the further devices;
transmitting further contextual information to an asset application operating on the proxy device, the asset application operative to exchange at least one asset stored on the proxy device with at least one of the further devices according to the further contextual information; and
transmitting a session request to the proxy device to he communicated with the session identifier from the proxy device to the at least one of the further devices to facilitate sharing of the at least one asset.

Abstract
A system receives contextual information regarding a context within which a device is operating. The contextual information is provided to an asset application that facilitates access to a plurality of assets, the contextual information to allow the asset application to interact with respective further asset applications executing on further devices within the context.

33. A computer-implemented method
executing instructions on a computing platform so that: -
binary digital electronic signals representing contextual information are received regarding a session initiation indicator including associated context within which a proxy device operates as a client device with further devices which are communicatively coupled as peers with the proxy device through a network connection; in response to the session initiation indicator, a session identifier is transmitted to the proxy device to facilitate an asset sharing session between the proxy device and the further devices; further contextual information is transmitted to an asset application operating on the proxy device, the asset application operative to exchange at least one asset stored on the proxy device with at least one of the further devices according to the further contextual information; and a session request is transmitted to the proxy device to be communicated with the session identifier from the proxy device to the at least one of the further devices to facilitate sharing of the at least one asset.
