In some embodiments, by being organized with another SNET, a SNET group docks the function that addressable one or more SNET groups, infrastructure etc. provide.For example, client SNET group 135 can be processed 125 by docking and organize 117 with SNET and dock, and accesses SNET 117 functions that provide are provided thereby the user that can allow client infrastructure 103 organizes 135 by client SNET.In particular, when one or more social devices 131 docked with client SNET group 135, the user can be by organizing the 135 one or more social devices 131 that dock with client SNET, access SNET group 117 functions that provide.docking processes 125 can comprise that connecting client SNET group 135 organizes 117 member as SNET, by a processing in various processing, its certain combination etc., with client SNET group 135 and 117 docking (herein also referred to as " being associated ") of SNET group, in this article and at least the U.S. utility patent application serial number 13/342 that is entitled as " Social Network Device Memberships and Applications(social networks device member composition and application program) " that is to submit on January 3rd, 2012, 301(attorney's procuration application case numbering BP23771) in, and in the U.S. utility patent application serial number 13/408 of being entitled as of submitting on February 29th, 2012 " the social device resource management of Social Device Resource Management() ", 986(attorney's procuration application case numbering BP23776) in, these processing have been described, in fact the full text of this case be incorporated herein by reference.

When setting forth above execution mode, the user who enters management place (including but not limited to shop, restaurant, hotel, business office, public domain etc.) needs access function, and these functions include but not limited to business that the SNET relevant to management place group provides, application program, information, device, its certain combination etc.Be not individually each user's set to be docked with the SNET group, the user can be simply dock individual's SNET group (user's set and the docking of individual SNET group) with the SNET the group relevant with management place, thus the permission user pass through the user with its people SNET organize docked some or all install the function of accessing the management place.As another example, the hotel can be organized by SNET various functions are provided, and includes but not limited to access call routing telephone business, controls specific television equipment, accessing database, its certain combination etc.Be not individually the SNET group in personal device and hotel to be docked in order to the function that provides is provided, include but not limited to the SNET group in intelligent telephone equipment and hotel dock in order to use the call routing telephone service, computer installation organized with the SNET in hotel docked in order to control specific television equipment etc., the client can be docked the SNET group in its people SNET group and hotel simply, then, by the device that docks with its people's SNET group, access organizes by the SNET in hotel the function that provides.

In some embodiments, thereby addressable miscellaneous service, device, the SNET relevant with various SNET infrastructure of docking SNET group user, member, client etc. is provided etc. by the function that provides, and this has improved fail safe.For example, when the user relevant to the first client SNET infrastructure 103 can be by docking with SNET group 117, only access service SNET infrastructure 101 provide function the time, the one or more treatment systems relevant to business SNET infrastructure 101, client SNET infrastructure 103 etc., device etc. can use various safe classes, guarantee these functions of secure access.In addition, in some embodiments, visit by docking two or more SNET groups the function that SNET infrastructure provides, this provides extra safe class.For example, the function that provides when access service SNET infrastructure 101 makes when needing client SNET group 135,145,155 etc. and SNET group 117 to dock, can adopt the safer connection with various safe classes, and by the single docking between administrative client SNET group and SNET group 117, be associated etc., can easily permit, change, limit, stop etc. the access to these functions.According to the variation in the geographical position of the input that receives from the user, third party entity, certain internal logic, elapsed time section, the client social device 131 relevant to client SNET infrastructure 103, certain other trigger event, its certain make up etc., the treatment system relevant to business SNET infrastructure 101, client SNET infrastructure 103 etc., install etc. and can manage this being associated property.

In some embodiments, selection and docking are processed 125 and be can be mechanization, automation, its certain combination etc.For example, position according to the user of infrastructure, include but not limited to geographically be close to one or more users, with user-dependent social device 131, with the specific client SNET group 135 social devices 131 that docks, its certain make up etc., trigger docking and process, thereby this processing can be automation.In some embodiments, the user can provide one or more associated rule, the condition that these rules can provide one or more specific client SNET groups 135 to dock with other SNET groups.Condition can include but not limited to, to the one or more social devices 131 of specific client SNET group 135 the docking geographically contiguous geographical position relevant with SNET group 117, the subscriber authorisation relevant with infrastructure 103, SNET group 135, social device 131, its certain combination etc., so as client SNET group 135 and SNET organize 117 dock, its certain make up etc.Dependency rule can be sent to social device 131, this device docks with specific SNET group 135, the treatment system of managing various SNET groups, its certain combination etc.With respect to one or more association rules, one or more treatment systems, social device 131, its certain combination etc. can monitor client SNET group 135, organize one or more attributes of 117 with the client SNET group 135 social devices 131 that docks and with respect to another or a plurality of SNET of one or more attributes of the social device 131 of one or more client SNET groups 135, docking, its certain combination etc., so as to determine whether with one or more SNET organize, social device etc. is docking together.Association rules can be changed when moving by user, treatment system, certain other entity etc., in order to produce new rule, deletion rule, change rule etc.For example, the user relevant to client SNET group 135 can transmit association rules when operation variation, this user before transmitted association rules to treatment system, this rule is forbidden being close to geographically outside the threshold value of social device 131, with client SNET group 135 and 117 docking of SNET group, the variation of association rules can include but not limited to, change threshold value geographic proximity, authorized client SNET group 135 and the one by one docking of specific SNET group 117, commands client SNET group 135 break away from another SNET group dock, its certain make up etc.

In some embodiments, each layer SNET packet layer aggregated(particle) structure 100 can be with different grade visit informations.For example, in the execution mode of setting forth, the user of " higher level " business SNET infrastructure 101 can check each client SNET group 135,145 and 155 relevant to " lower level " client SNET infrastructure 103,105 and 107, and this client SNET infrastructure is docked to the SNET group 117 relevant with social business infrastructure 101.The user of business SNET infrastructure 101 can check the various social device 131,141 and 151 from 135,145 and 155 docking of different client SNET group.in another example, include but not limited to client SNET infrastructure 103, 105 can check with one or more users of " lower level " infrastructure of 107 some or all functions (the SNET group relevant with " lower level " infrastructure docked with " higher level " infrastructure) that provides by the SNET group relevant to " higher level " infrastructure, but this user can not check some that includes but not limited to various SNET groups 115 and 119 or own " higher level " infrastructure, at first by should " higher level " infrastructure providing the SNET group 117 functions that provide.In addition, the SNET group 117 that " lower level " infrastructure user access is relevant to " higher level " business SNET infrastructure 101 can not be checked also with identical SNET and be organized 117 some of docking or every other similar " lower level " client SNET infrastructure 105 and 107.

In some embodiments, selection and docking processing 125 can be controlled by one or more different social devices, treatment system, management service etc., manage etc.For example, the treatment system of SNET infrastructure can be according to mutual, one or more association rules of user and SNET, one or more input, certain internal logic, its certain combination etc., control a SNET group and dock with another and break away from docking, this SNET infrastructure can comprise the one or more examples (instance) across the treatment circuit of one or more server units distributions, network node, its certain combination etc.As another example, social device can according to mutual, one or more association rules of user and SNET, one or more input, certain internal logic, its certain combination etc., be controlled the docking of one or more SNET groups and break away from docking.In some embodiments, be authorized to one or more access attributes that the treatment system of management " higher level " infrastructure, social device, its certain combination etc. can be managed one or more " lower level " infrastructure of docking with " higher level " infrastructure.For example, the treatment system of the social business infrastructure 101 of authorization control " higher level " can be according to input or certain other logic, thereby changes access to some function, restriction to the access of some function, stop access, its certain combination etc. by SNET group and device are broken away from docking.Treatment system can determine to include but not limited to the trigger event of following event: surpassed the threshold value geographic proximity distance of being scheduled to apart with the geographical position relevant with SNET group 117 to all social devices 131 with client SNET group 135 docking of SNET group 117 docking, and, determine according to this, client SNET group 135 and SNET group 117 are broken away from docking, client SNET group 135 access SNET group 117 some function that provides, its certain combination etc. partially or completely are provided.

In some embodiments, according to user's input, member, treatment system, device, SNET, SNET group, its certain combination etc., various SNET groups are created by certain part of SNET infrastructure, and this infrastructure includes but not limited to management service.For example, when SNET infrastructure 103 was relevant to SNET member's account, the member of the account can offer input SNET infrastructure 103, in order to create SNET group 135.This input can include but not limited to organize 135 attribute, with the obtainable information of one or more members of the group 135 social devices 131 that docks, this group 135, its certain make up etc.

In some embodiments, a SNET group in SNET infrastructure is docked with another SNET group.For example, in the execution mode of setting forth, SNET group 135 is docked with SNET group 117 by the docking link.Process by one or more various docking, a SNET group can be docked with another SNET group, and these docking are processed and included but not limited to begin separately docking by one or more devices, SNET group etc.

In some embodiments, docking is processed and can be comprised mutual between at least some SNET groups and the 2nd SNET group.For example, when SNET group 135, application program 113 etc. will be docked with SNET group 117 via the docking link, one or more members between SNET group 135, application program 113, SNET group 117 can be organized with reference to two SNET, the device of docking, functional parts, obtainable information, its certain combination etc., exchange security information is processed etc.Mutual and access suitable between two SNET groups, its each member etc. can be verified to additional safety in this exchange.In some embodiments, the processing of additional safety (for example, the individual confirms to require) is for the reciprocation of safety between the SNET group of guaranteeing one or more docking, device, member's etc. function.

In some embodiments, the various action can comprise that one or more SNET, SNET system, SNET infrastructure, treatment system, SNET group, social device, user, member, its certain combination etc. are taked are processed in docking, and this action can include but not limited to verify best docking location, show to user, member etc. and dock link.for example, when the user relevant to SNET infrastructure 103 and SNET infrastructure 103 mutual, in order to SNET group 135 is docked with certain part of SNET infrastructure 101, thereby during the various function of the interior SNET group that comprises of access SNET infrastructure 101, another SNET group that SNET group 135 and SNET infrastructure 101 is interior is relevant, the docking of docking etc. is processed and can be included but not limited to, determine the best docking configuration between the one or more different SNET group in SNET group 135 and SNET infrastructure 101, thereby the member that can allow SNET group 135 accesses certain or some function of SNET infrastructure 101.As shown in the execution mode of setting forth, SNET group 135 can be docked with SNET group 117 by the first docking link, and dock with SNET group 115 by the second docking link, a part as single docking processing, thereby some function that the various SNET groups that SNET group 135 and SNET infrastructure 101 is interior provide is associated, wherein, best docking configuration is determined to include but not limited to SNET group 135 is docked with SNET group 117 and SNET group 115, thereby accesses these functions.Single docking specification, as certain other combination of the docking specification of the part of one or more SNET infrastructure 101 and 103, management service, its certain combination etc., can control various docking links.In some embodiments, with the relation of the relation of type one to one, a pair of eurypalynous relation, many-one type, its certain combination etc., can docking link and the docking of docking specification, be associated etc.

In some embodiments, docking is processed by docking with SNET group 117 and SNET group 115, SNET group 135 is associated with some function of SNET infrastructure 101, this processing can comprise the demonstration that the docking link is set, thereby the member who accesses these functions can't see docking link between various SNET groups, device, SNET infrastructure etc., mutual etc. complexity completely.In the execution mode of setting forth, for example, demonstration, representative graph of the function that can comprise the addressable SNET group 117 of the member that SNET group 135 is set etc. processed in the docking that SNET group 135 dock with SNET group 117 and SNET group 115, by two docking links, SNET organized 117 and organizes 115 and 119 with two SNET and dock this fact in order to hide.The demonstration of simplifying, representative graph etc. can only show the diagram of the SNET group 117 of docking with some function of SNET infrastructure 101.In some embodiments, the member can regulate, switches or handle the complexity of demonstration, representative graph etc., thereby shows part or the whole diagram of docking link between SNET infrastructure, SNET group, social device etc., mutual etc. complexity to the member.

In some embodiments, set up a plurality of docking links extra fail safe can be provided, in order to access some function.For example, when the docking link between SNET group 135 and SNET group 117 provides the docking link for certain function, this docking link has the higher link of fail safe than the indirect link of the docking link of SNET group 115, SNET group 115, its certain combination etc., this docking is processed and can be comprised foundation docking link, in order to provide than the safer link of link that is used for another function of access for certain function.In some embodiments, set up the comparable single docking link of a plurality of docking links more effectively access function, business etc.For example, docking is processed and is comprised when the docking link of determining SNET group 117 and SNET group 115 can more effectively be accessed some function of SNET infrastructure 101 than single docking link, and docking is processed and can be included but not limited to set up vertical a plurality of docking links into the SNET of SNET infrastructure 101.

In some embodiments, according to different docking specifications, manage the docking link between different SNET groups, social device etc.In some embodiments, the docking specification can be managed one or more specific docking links, and for example but not by the restriction mode, according to changing, limit, permit, stop which access, the difference in functionality that proposes to organize with SNET, secure access requirement, access time section, access limitation that trigger event is relevant, restriction, license etc.For example, as shown in the execution mode of setting forth, SNET group 135 can comprise docking specification 106, the docking link between this specifications control SNET group 135 and SNET group 117.In some embodiments, the group 135 interior independent docking specifications that comprise can control SNET group 135 and SNET group 115, SNET group 135 and install 131, the docking link between its certain combination etc.Before docking, member by SNET group 135 partially or completely pre-determines the docking specification, create this docking specification and as when operation, SNET group 135 be docked to the part that the docking of another SNET group are processed, by SNET infrastructure 103, the SNET group of attempting dock with SNET group 135, its certain make up etc. this docking specification be provided.For example, the member of SNET group 135 can set up docking specification 106, this specification can be according to trigger event after a while, the function that member's access of restriction SNET group 117 provides by SNET group 135, with group 135 one or more devices 131 that dock etc., this trigger event include but not limited to elapsed time section, member's access authorization, its certain make up etc.In some embodiments, the docking specification is exclusively used in some attribute of other SNET groups and device, thereby SNET group 135 is docked in the various SNET groups with relevant attribute.For example, docking specification 106 can represent, SNET group 135 will by the docking link with and predetermined threshold in the relevant SNET in geographical position organize 117 and dock, the contiguous geographical position relevant to SNET group 135, this geographical position, and the docking specification can represent, if the geographical position relevant to SNET group 117 surpassed proximity threshold, to limit so, be terminated to the docking link of SNET group 117.

In some embodiments, can be according to the SNET group of the device of user's input, member, SNET system, SNET infrastructure, docking, docking, its certain combination etc., regulate, manage, change, create, delete some or all docking specifications.for example, the member of SNET group 135 can set up docking specification 106, in order to control one or

more SNET groups

117, 115 and 119 docking link, thereby

restriction SNET group

115, 117, 119, 145 and 155 member accesses SNET group 135, some function of the device 131 that docks with SNET group 135 etc., then, with SNET group 135, SNET infrastructure 103, its certain combination etc. is mutual, in order to change docking specification 106, thereby the member of SNET group 117, access more SNET with member of SNET group 117 groups of dock 145 etc. and organize 135, with the SNET group 135 one or more devices 131 that dock, the function that its certain combination etc. provides.With respect to existing docking link, the docking specification of controlling potential docking link, its certain combination etc., in self-organizing was processed, when operation, the docking specification can be carried out this management at any time.

In some embodiments, the docking specification of the docking link between control " higher level " SNET group and " lower level " SNET group is the part of higher level SNET group.For example, in the execution mode of setting forth, SNET group 117 is higher level SNET group, and when SNET group 135,145 and 155 is organized for lower level SNET, lower level SNET group 135,145 and 155 and higher level SNET group 117 between butt chain route docking specifications control, this docking specification is the part of higher level SNET group 117, thereby can controlled by higher level SNET group with docking on link of lower level SNET group.

In some embodiments, the docking specification can be revised by user, member, SNET system, SNET infrastructure, social device, its certain combination etc., in order to the mutual and access of various grades is provided between the SNET of different docking group.For example, in the execution mode of setting forth, docking specification 106 can indicate with SNET group 117 dock link by docking link-attached one or more SNET groups 135 and 117, with the SNET group 135 one or more devices 131 that dock, its certain make up etc. between, Two-way Interaction completely is provided, shares information, business etc.In another example, docking specification 106 can indicate the docking link to provide unidirectional group to the group Operational Visit by the docking link between SNET group 135 and SNET group 117, so at least some business that the function of the addressable SNET group 117 of the member of SNET group 135 provides, but the member of SNET group 117, can not access with SNET with the groups 145 of group 117 docking, member of 155 etc. and organize 135 relevant some or all information, business, device etc.For example, hotel client's SNET group is docked with the SNET group in hotel, so that when allowing the SNET group access hotel business function of hotel client by the hotel, the docking specification of the docking link between control hotel client's SNET group and the SNET group in hotel can be stipulated, some function of the SNET group in restriction client access hotel, hotel, limit simultaneously any function of SNET group of the SNET group access hotel client in hotel, include but not limited to access the device that docks with hotel client's SNET group.in another example, the first adjacent SNET group is docked with contiguous observation group, and the first adjacent safe camera head, when motion detector etc. docks with the first adjacent SNET group, the first neighbours can limit or the member that do not allow neighbours to observe SNET group accesses the data that the first adjacent safety device generates, but the first neighbours can change the docking specification after a while, so that some or all data that allow that the member of contiguous observation group accesses that some or all the first adjacent safety devices generate, thereby the data that some or all the first adjacent safety devices are generated send to contiguous observation group, be used for conducting interviews, monitoring, analyze etc.As mentioned above, in some embodiments, different users, member, SNET group, SNET infrastructure etc. can change this access and the mutual aspect of docking specification at any time.

In some embodiments, the docking specification is carried out some restriction to the function of SNET group, these functions is provided, is supplied to the member of the SNET group of docking.For example, docking specification 106 can be indicated via organizing one or more links of 117 with SNET, only some function of SNET group 135 is offered the member of SNET group 135.Docking specification 106 also can indicate each member in SNET group 135,145 and 155 differently to access the different one or more functions of SNET group 117.For example, docking specification 106 can indicate each member in SNET group 135,145 and 155 to access uniquely one or more functions of SNET group 117.

In some embodiments, the function that the docking link between various SNET groups can allow extra SNET group access SNET group to provide, extra SNET group joins, docks etc. with these SNET group indirect correlations.For example, in the execution mode of setting forth, when SNET group 145 was docked with SNET group 117 by the docking link, SNET group 145 can be docked with SNET group 135 by the docking link that SNET organizes between 135,117 and 145.Docking specification 406 in one or more butt chain route SNET groups 135 is controlled.The member that in some embodiments, can permit SNET group 145 accesses at least some functions (member of SNET group 117 is allowed to access SNET group 135) of SNET group 135.Various docking specifications can determine that the member of SNET group 117 accesses the function of SNET group 135, and these specifications include but not limited to control the docking specification 406 of the docking link between SNET group 135 and SNET group 117 and one or more docking specifications of the docking link between control SNET group 117 and one or more SNET group 135,145 and 155.For example, organize the 117 SNET group access SNET that dock by restriction with SNET and organize 135 function, docking specification 106 can be permitted the member of SNET group 135 by organizing some function of 135 with the link-access SNET that docks of SNET group 117.In another example, docking specification 406 can stipulate, the member of SNET group 117 can not access, accesses the function of some or all other SNET groups, and other SNET groups include but not limited to and SNET group 135 devices that dock 131.

Various docking specification limits are except being used for local group supply, and various docking specification limits also can be used for the chain type supply.For example, SNET group 135 can freely allow any other SNET group by to the direct docking link of SNET group 117, by indirect link, by to the docking link of the SNET group of dock with SNET group 117, its certain make up etc., access all supplies, include but not limited to device 131, its certain combination of business, content, data, access docking etc.In some embodiments, can limit this access that freely provides by docking specification 106.Yet, but the access of docking specification 406 restricted passage SNET groups 117, include but not limited to not allow to access, understand some or all supply of any outside SNET group, SNET group 135 is docked with outside SNET group, includes but not limited to that one or more SNET organize 145 and 155.Like this, connect and chain type SNET group and device specification according to docking, can be according to lower floor's demand with the whole bag of tricks management supply.In some embodiments, this connection of whole supply and chain type management are used twice: once be used for an access side to.For example, the supply restriction relevant from SNET infrastructure 103 can be fully different with SNET infrastructure 105.In addition, even the specific supply that docking specifications that all in SNET infrastructure 101 are relevant can allow SNET that limiting access at least docks with SNET group 117 to organize, this access can not extend to device 131 and the SNET group 135 of for example docking, this be because: a) docking specification 106 further proposes the restrict access beyond SNET infrastructure 101 needed restrict access, b) the interior relevant docking specification of SNET infrastructure 101 can limit external connection, its certain combination etc.

For example, in self-organizing tourism network docking configuration, visitor's individual SNET group structure (for example, SNET infrastructure 103) may need to provide the SNET to the hotel (for example to organize structure, SNET infrastructure 101) very limited access, yet in another direction, the supply of the SNET in hotel group structure can freely be provided.Each structure only needs to provide the access to any supply that will show, member's proof of identification, information etc.The visitor can select to show, and for example, a) is positioned at the payment transaction parts somewhere of whole individual SNET group structure; B) visitor's social intelligence phone imports messaging service into; C) keeper's imports messaging service into; D) travel document stores business; Its certain combination etc., and function, supply etc. can be selected to show in the hotel, include but not limited to: 1) regional catalogue, map and other information services; 2) protocol service; 3) bill clearing service; 4) subscription services; 5) network office equipment; Its certain combination etc.For example, by the various docking specifications relevant to initial SNET group, showing in any situation can be defined as by the docking specification and revise, these docking specifications are organized relevant with SNET in the chain type path of arriving the destination.

In another example, adjacent individual SNET group structure (for example, SNET infrastructure 103) to contiguous observation group structure (for example may need to provide, SNET infrastructure 101) very limited access, and in another direction, the contiguous SNET of observation organizes the structure supply and can freely be provided.The access that neighbour provides can comprise the data that the access various devices 131 relevant to neighbour generate, and includes but not limited to safety device, monitoring device etc.

In some embodiments, can will dock the specification expansion, thereby the resolution over the group level is provided.For example, before link provided access by docking, docking specification 106 can be carried out safety verification, its certain combination of identification, various levels etc., even comprises providing proof of identification.In another example, docking specification 106 limits and organizes the secure interactive of 145 visitors' of docking local social intelligence phone 141 as SNET group 135 members' visitor by needed and SNET, the specific supply that parts in access SNET group 145, service or device participants provide, but some or the every other member of SNET group 155, other SNET groups etc. can not access specific supply.In other words, for the supply of one or more specific SNET group, function, supply identifier etc., and for one or more specific group memberships, information about firms etc., can set up specific chain type docking specification details, in order to manage whole access, include but not limited to limited access.Therefore, although be shown as on function distributed, be associated etc. with each link, can manage chain type docking specification flow process by single user interface, and this flow process can be stored in the individual data library structure.

In some embodiments, acquiescence docking specification can be with respect to the supply of one or more specific SNET group default treatment, access, mutual etc., but when authorizing member, device, SNET system, SNET group, SNET infrastructure, its certain combination etc. to need, allow to carry out that specific supply is revised, other access are revised, its certain make up etc.Equally, also can revise whole default treatment.

In some embodiments, the docking specification can be the part of one or more SNET groups, SNET infrastructure, social device, certain other entity, its certain combination etc.For example, when with 135 devices that dock 131 startups of SNET group, SNET group 135 being docked to the docking processing of SNET group 117, docking specification 106 can be SNET and organizes a part of 135.In addition, the docking that SNET group 135 is docked to SNET group 117 are processed and are comprised and receiving and when agreeing certain part SNET infrastructure 101 of docking request of certain part SNET infrastructure 103, docking specification 106 can be the part of SNET group 117.In some embodiments, docking request can include but not limited to a SNET group be docked to another SNET group request, with device be docked to the SNET group request, the function (including but not limited to business, access means, application program etc.) of a SNET group is offered the request of the one or more devices that dock with the 2nd SNET group.Docking request can from the device that dock with a SNET group, the device that dock with the 2nd SNET group, member that a SNET organizes, member that the 2nd SNET organizes, third party, its certain make up etc.

Dock the SNET group 115 of the one or more docking specification defineds in the addressable infrastructure 101 of SNET group 135 and some of SNET group 119 or all functions by organizing 117 with SNET; On the contrary, when SNET group 135 is docked with SNET group 117, some of the SNET group 135 of SNET group 117 addressable docking specification 106 defineds or all functions.

In some embodiments, the various SNET group docking with in various SNET groups and various SNET infrastructure can comprise various restrict access and limitation.For example, SNET group 115 with and the SNET that docks of SNET group 119 organize 117 when docking, these SNET groups all in SNET infrastructure 101, by to controlling the management of the various docking specifications of docking link, can be determined the mutual and access of the various levels of various SNET groups.The SNET of these three docking group 115,117 and 119 can be accessed some or all each other functions, the function of the addressable SNET group 115 of SNET group 117, SNET organizes 117 and 115 addressable functions each other, and some function of the addressable SNET group 119 of SNET group 117, its certain combination etc.Can carry out this mutual, access, docking etc., and not carry out any mutual with third party entity, third party SNET group etc.

In some embodiments, when third party entity, third party SNET group etc. is included in the docking link, need to have extra mutual with third party entity, third party SNET group etc.For example, one or more devices 131 will organize 117 when docking with SNET, and docking, access etc. need by the 3rd device mutual with one or more SNET groups 135, and the 3rd device can be the part of infrastructure 103.In some embodiments, can be processed with the docking between SNET group that independent SNET infrastructure, user, member etc. are associated by various devices, treatment system, SNET system, SNET infrastructure etc. startup, management.For example, can by one or more other devices 131 that docks with SNET group 135, with the SNET group 117 one or more devices that docks, the one or more devices that docks with third party SNET group, one or more treatment system, one or more SNET basis instrument, its certain make up etc., startup, manage first device 131, SNET organize 135 etc. and SNET organize docking between 117.

In some embodiments, the function that one or more SNET groups, infrastructure etc. provide comprises business, device etc., one or more devices that these business, device etc. access is docked with one or more SNET groups, SNET group etc. and mutual with it.For example, in the execution mode of setting forth, business SNET infrastructure 101 can comprise one or more social attendant applications 113, the data that this application program monitoring and analysis are relevant to the social user's set 131 of one or more clients, the social user's set 131 of client are directly or indirectly passed through client SNET group 135 of docking etc. and are docked with SNET group 117.This monitoring and analyze and can include but not limited to receive data, is collected this data at certain transducer of the one or more social device of being controlled by social device, the device of communicating by letter with social device, its certain combination etc., element, functional parts etc. generation.In some embodiments, social attendant application 113 receive data from user's set 131, user's set 131 directly or indirectly docks with group 117 by docking group 135 etc., wherein, these data are relevant to certain part that is associated with another device that is connected 131, be connected with this device 131, its certain combination etc., functional parts, transducer etc.Can from install 131 requests, by obtaining with the chain route access means 131 of SNET group 117, providing this data as what docked by one or more in one or more infrastructure 103 and 101 that specification provides by device 131.But these data of docking specification granted access; In some embodiments, one or more entities can change the docking specification, thereby when operation, limit, enable, stop, authorize predetermined trigger event, trigger condition etc.

In some embodiments, Monitoring Data comprises comparing data and information, in order to determine whether these data are associated with one or more threshold values.For example, by determining whether these data are stored in the interior information of infrastructure 101, third party's infrastructure, one or more third party device, its certain combination etc. with this locality and are associated, and social attendant application 113 can be monitored the data from device 131.Analyze data and include but not limited to the data that receive from one or more devices, SNET group etc. are carried out one or more assemblings, comparison, so as recognition data trend, determine from the data in one or more sources whether be associated with predetermined one or more trigger events, its certain make up etc.For example, application program 113 can be collected data from the device 131 relevant to a plurality of independent motion detectors, 141 and 151, and analyzes this data, thereby follows the tracks of the motion on the geographic area.in another example, one or more devices 131, 141 and 151 comprise the camera head that can generate images of items and GPS beacon, and application program 113 is from installing 131, 141 and 151 collect image and gps coordinate, this coordinate is corresponding to the when and where of photographic images, application program 113 can comprise monitoring and analytical system, monitoring system, analytical system, monitoring and analysis business, the monitoring business, analysis business etc., can identify in the image that is associated with some information specific article and then analyze these data, thereby follow the tracks of this article in geographic area and elapsed time.

In some embodiments, one or more functions of providing of a SNET group comprise and can access one or more functions that the device, the 2nd SNET that docks with a SNET group organize etc.The data that this access can receive based on one or more functions that monitoring, analysis the one SNET group provide.For example, in the execution mode of setting forth, when application program 113 is monitored from the data of one or more SNET groups 135,145 and 155, one or more device 131,141 and 151, its certain combination etc., application program 113 can be by mutual with one or more devices, third party entity, its certain combination etc., in response to some input, triggering etc.The preset device that third party device can comprise the user relevant to the device that receives at least some data from it, relevant internal logic, SNET group etc. are identified with one or more infrastructure, SNET group, account etc.For example, application program can be by access (communicate with, mutual etc.) by application program 113, certain other member, device, entity etc. predetermined one or more device 141, third party SNET group, device, member etc., and response is to determine that data from a device 131 are with relevant over activation threshold value.In some embodiments, during from a user's set receive data, by mutual with another user's set, application program can be made response.For example, from with the group 135 dock device 131 receive data the time, this group 135 is the sensor device of generation with the data of the environmental correclation of contiguous one or more devices 131, by collect extra data from transducer, application program 113 can be made response, from with the group 135 another independent devices 131 that dock request msg, with signal send to isolated system 131 with user interface, mutual with third party device, analyze the data of collecting from a plurality of devices so that tracking data trend, its certain combination etc.

Referring now to Fig. 2,, some execution mode of SNET packet layer aggregated(particle) structure 200 can allow client SNET group 135 to dock with the SNET group of the function that various infrastructure are provided.In the execution mode of setting forth, make up, dock, be associated two infrastructure 201 and 203 are in order to provide function by the SNET group 237 of single combination from these two infrastructure 201 and 203.The social business infrastructure 201 in the whole world comprises by social business support user's set 211, social attendant application 213 and various SNET group 215,219 and 217 functions that provide of the function that infrastructure 201 provides being carried out certain combination.In addition, part/regional social business infrastructure 203 also comprises by social business support user's set 221, social attendant application 223 and various SNET group 225,229 and 227 functions that provide of the function that infrastructure 203 provides being carried out certain combination.The social attendant application 213 that provided by social business support user's set 211 and 221 functions that provide and infrastructure 201 and 203 and 223 combination are provided the part of making up/regionality and global SNET group 237.Client SNET group 135 can organize 237 when dock with SNET, and by single client SNET group and single SNET group 237 are docked, client SNET organizes 135 member can access this two functions that infrastructure provides.

In some embodiments, the function of these two infrastructure 201 and 203 combinations that provide only is provided the representative graph 205 that offers the member of the client SNET group 135 that SNET group 237 functions that provide are provided, irrelevant with some or all indication of infrastructure, provide some or all functions by this infrastructure at first.In the execution mode of setting forth, for example, in the social business support user's set 231 of the interior demonstration of representative graph 205 and 221 functions that provide, as the combination group of social business support user's set 231; Equally, at the social attendant application 213 and 223 of the interior demonstration of representative graph 205 from these two infrastructure 201 and 203, as the combination group of social attendant application 233.In addition, for the member of the representative graph 205 of access SNET group 237 functions that provide, processing SNET groups 215,217,219,225,227 and 229 all in the infrastructure that partially or completely is attached in SNET group 237 by one or more docking can be partially or completely transparent.In some embodiments, the member of access representative graph 205 can recover the interior infrastructure 201 of representative graph 205 and 203 the whole complexity of combination, thereby this member can be provided by various SNET groups and the function of various infrastructure special uses and the function that provides.
