System for managing resources accessible to a mobile device server
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- enabling, by a system including a processor, voice communication sessions with other communication devices;
detecting, by the system, a first resource control manager while roaming, wherein the first resource control manager operates from a first mobile communication device having voice communication capability, wherein the first resource control manager is communicatively coupled to a plurality of first resources accessible to the system and is communicatively coupled to a second resource control manager operating from a second mobile communication device, wherein the first resource control manager manages usage of the plurality of first resources, and wherein the second resource control manager manages usage of a plurality of second resources;
facilitating, by the system, establishing communications with the first resource control manager;
transmitting, by the system, a pairing key to the first resource control manager;
receiving, by the system, authorization from the first resource control manager to pair with a target resource selected by the first resource control manager from the plurality of second resources according to the pairing key; and
facilitating, by the system, establishing communications with the target resource for usage that is being managed by the second resource control manager operating from the second mobile communication device.

Abstract
A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium operating in a mobile device server having computer instructions to execute a web server application in the mobile device server. The web server application can be operable to detect a resource control manager while roaming in a communication zone of the resource control manager, and to transmit a pairing key to the resource control manager. The web server application can also be operable to receive from the resource control manager authorization to pair with one or more resources selected by the resource control manager according to the pairing key, and to establish communications with the one or more resources selected by the resource control manager. Other embodiments are disclosed.
