1. A computer-implemented method for a distributed association engine, comprising:

  • searching, by a processor, for objects of interest within a spatially bounded area;

    identifying, by the processor, a set objects of interest responsive to the search comprising loose connections between a system running the distributed association engine but not available to an entire computing platform running the distributed association engine;

    mapping, by the processor, a set of associations between the set of objects of interest in a personal network, wherein each of the set of objects of interest comprises a node within the personal network, and wherein the set of associations comprises at least one of an edge and an arc;

    receiving a selected subset of the set of objects of interest responsive to the search from a user;

    monitoring, by the processor, the selected subset of the set of objects of interest for a user behavior; and

    triggering, by the processor, an action to occur when the user behavior is detected.
