    using the application on a client device for controlling applications, interfacing between a context object stored in a shared memory of a system and the at least one application;

    using the application on a client device for controlling applications, retrieving context data from said context object using the application on a client device for controlling applications;

    using the application on a client device for controlling applications to perform at least one of;

    updating said context object with new context data derived from interactions with the at least one application;

    modulating behaviour of the at least one application based on said context data; and
