1. A method of managing a wireless docking environment, the method comprising:
- maintaining, by a first device, one or more communication sessions between one or more peripheral devices;
determining if the first device is in proximity of a second device;
receiving from the second device a resource availability index;
comparing the resource availability index of the second device to a resource availability index of the first device;
in response to determining the first device is in proximity of the second device and based on the comparison of the resource availability index of the first device to the resource availability index of the second device, relinquishing control of at least one of the one or more communication sessions to the second device.

22. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:
-
maintain one or more communication sessions between one or more peripheral devices and a first device; determine if the first device is in proximity of a second device; receive from the second device a resource availability index; compare the resource availability index of the second device to a resource availability index of the first device; in response to determining the first device is in proximity of the second device and based on the comparison of the resource availability index of the first device to the resource availability index of the second device, relinquish control of at least one of the one or more communication sessions to the second device. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
