1. A method for controlling access to a plurality of automobile resources by a plurality of user devices, the method comprising:
- constructing a resource map comprising (i) capabilities information for the plurality of automobile resources, and (ii) physical environment information for the plurality of user devices;
receiving a plurality of resource updates from the user devices, each resource update comprising physical environment information for a respective user device obtained from one or more sensors associated with said user device;
updating the resource map based on the resource updates;
receiving a service request from a requesting user device of the plurality of user devices;
assigning a profile to the requesting user device based on an application of pattern matching rules for matching access policies with information contained in the resource map;
modifying the profile based on the resource updates; and
controlling access to one of the plurality of automobile resources by the requesting user device based on the profile assigned to the requesting user device.
