First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- detecting an event;
determining usage of one or more of a plurality of connected apparatuses, the usage representative of one or more activities in which the plurality of connected apparatuses are engaged;
selecting, by adaptive notification circuitry, at least one of the plurality of connected apparatuses based at least in part on the usage, wherein selecting at least one of the plurality of connected apparatuses comprises selecting the at least one of the plurality of connected apparatuses so as to avoid interfering with usage of an in-use connected apparatus;
generating an event notification message; and
causing the event notification message to be sent to the selected at least one of the plurality of connected apparatuses to provide an alert indicative of the event.

18. A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program instructions stored therein, wherein when the computer-readable program instructions are executed by an apparatus, the computer-readable program instructions configure the apparatus to perform a method comprising:
-
detecting an event; determining usage of one or more connected apparatuses, the usage representative of one or more activities in which the one or more connected apparatuses are engaged; selecting, by adaptive notification circuitry, at least one of a plurality of connected apparatuses based at least in part on the usage, the plurality of connected apparatuses comprising the one or more connected apparatuses, wherein the computer-readable program instructions configure the apparatus to perform the method further comprising selecting the at least one of the plurality of connected apparatuses by selecting the at least one of the plurality of connected apparatuses so as to avoid interfering with usage of an in-use connected apparatus; generating an event notification message; and causing the event notification message to be sent to the selected at least one of the plurality of connected apparatuses to provide an alert indicative of the event.
