[0039] Although in various embodiments, the implementation of system 102 is explained with regard to the server 110, those skilled in the art would appreciate that, the system 102 can fully or partially be implemented in other computing devices operatively coupled with network 104 with minor modifications, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
[0040] FIG. 2 illustrates exemplary functional components of the system 102 in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0041] In an aspect, the system 102 may include a processing unit 108 including one or more processor(s) 202. The one or more processor(s) 202 may be implemented as one or more microprocessors, microcomputers, microcontrollers, digital signal processors, central processing units, logic circuitries, and/or any devices that manipulate data based on operational instructions. Among other capabilities, the one or more processor(s) 202 are configured to fetch and execute computer-readable instructions stored in a memory 204 of the system 102. The memory 204 may store one or more computer-readable instructions or routines, which may be fetched and executed to create or share the data units over a network service. The memory 204 may comprise any non-transitory storage device including, for example, volatile memory such as RAM, or non-volatile memory such as EPROM, flash memory, and the like.
[0042] The system 102 may also comprise an interface(s) 206. The interface(s) 206 may comprise a variety of interfaces, for example, interfaces for data input and output devices, referred to as I/O devices, storage devices, and the like. The interface(s) 206 may facilitate communication of the system 102 with various devices coupled to the system 102 such as an input unit and an output unit. The interface(s) 206 may also provide a communication pathway for one or more components of the computing device 102. Examples of such components include, but are not limited to, processing engine(s) 208 and database 210.
[0043] The processing engine(s) 208 may be implemented as a combination of hardware and programming (for example, programmable instructions) to implement one or more functionalities of the processing engine(s) 208. In examples described herein, such combinations of hardware and programming may be implemented in several different ways. For example, the programming for the processing engine(s) 208 may be processor executable instructions stored on a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium and the hardware for the processing engine(s) 208 may comprise a processing resource (for example, one or more processors), to execute such instructions. In the present examples, the machine-readable storage medium may store instructions that, when executed by the processing resource, implement the processing engine(s) 208. In such examples, the computing device 102 may comprise the machine-readable storage medium storing the instructions and the processing resource to execute the instructions, or the machine-readable storage medium may be separate but accessible to the system 102 and the processing resource. The database 210 may comprise data that is either stored or generated as a result of functionalities implemented by any of the components of the processing engine(s) 208.
[0044] In an exemplary embodiment, the processing engine(s) 208 may comprise a receiving unit 212, associating unit 214, determining unit 216 and other units(s) 218.
[0045] It would be appreciated that units being described are only exemplary units and any other unit or sub- unit may be included as part of the system 102 or as part of the control unit of the system 102. These units too may be merged or divided into super- units or sub- units as may be configured.
Receiving Unit 212
[0046] In an embodiment, a set of attributes may be received from the first/second computing device, where the set of attributes pertain to location of the first computing device. Additionally or alternatively, the system 102 may receive attributes pertaining to the location of the second computing device. In an embodiment, the first and/or second computing device may store the information on a cloud server. The system 102 may communicate with the cloud server to receive the attributes pertaining to the location. In an embodiment, the first computing device may continuously send location information to the second computing device. The location information may include an identifier to allow identification of the received location information associated with the first computing device. Based on the identification, the second computing device 106 may send the set of attributes pertaining to the location of the first and the second computing device to the system 102. In an exemplary embodiment, the set of attributes may include GPS coordinates and so on.
[0047] In an example, the location attributes may be received through wireless fidelity (WiFi) module, a local area network (LAN) module, an over the air (OTA) module, a Bluetooth module, a 4G module, and so on.
Associating Unit 214
[0048] In an embodiment, the system 102 may include an associating unit 214 that may be configured to associate the second computing device with one of the plurality of nodes based on the received set of attributes. In an embodiment, the associating unit 214 may be configured to match the received set of attributes with predefined set of location attributes.
In an exemplary embodiment, the location of the second computing device/user is matched with the pre-stored locations, where the pre-stored locations may be retrieved from a cloud server. Based on the matching, the second computing device associated with the user get associated with one of the plurality of nodes. In an embodiment, the step of associating the second computing device with one of the plurality of nodes may be performed based on machine learning. In an embodiment, the plurality of nodes are segregated into safe nodes, beacon nodes, and dynamic nodes based on pre-stored information. The pre-stored information includes any one or a combination of a set of locations marked safe by the user, most-visited location, and rarely visited location. In an example, the safe nodes may correspond to locations marked safe by the user and the beacon nodes may correspond to marked safe by the user, whereas the dynamic nodes may correspond to nodes where the location of the user is frequently changing as in the case, e.g., when he is travelling by car. The values present in the safe node and beacon node are static and may be set by the user. On the other hand, the values in the dynamic node are dynamic in terms of coordinate values. It is changing frequently according to the location of wireless portable device.
[0049] In an embodiment, each of the plurality of nodes may be associated with a corresponding threshold distance between the first computing device and second computing device associated with the user. In an example, the threshold distance of the node is dependent on the location of the second computing device and/or the first computing device.. In an example, the threshold distance corresponding to the safe nodes may be greater than the threshold distance corresponding to the beacon nodes as the first computing device would be more secure in case of the safe node compared to the beacon nodes for the same distance between the first computing device and the second computing device. Thus, the system facilitates monitoring the first computing device based on location of the second computing device (also referred to location of the user) and distance between the first computing device and the user.
Determining Unit 216
[0050] In an embodiment, the system 102 may include a determining unit that may determine whether the first computing device is within the threshold distance, corresponding to the associated node, from the second computing device, upon association of the second computing device with the one of the plurality of nodes. In an example, the system 102 may calculate the distance between the first computing device and the second computing device. The system 102 may then compare the distance between the first computing device and the second computing device with the threshold distance corresponding to the associated node. If the distance between the first computing device and the second computing device is greater than the threshold distance, then it is determined that the first computing device is not within the threshold distance. Otherwise, the first computing device is within the threshold distance.
Other Unit(s) 218
[0051] In an embodiment, the system 102 may be configured to generate an alert when the first computing device is not within the threshold distance corresponding to the associated node from the second computing device. The system 102 may be configured to transmit an alert to the user. In an exemplary embodiment, the system 102 may transmit an alert to the second computing device. In an example, the second computing device 106 may generate an alarm sound to alert the user that the first computing device is not within the safety range. In an embodiment, the second computing device may present the information on a display or a screen of the second computing device indicating that the first computing device is not within the safety range form the second computing device.
[0052] Thus, the present disclosure provides system or method for monitoring a computing device so as to detect misplacement of the computing device. The computing device is communicatively coupled with another computing device associated with the user. When the computing device is not within the safety range from the user or the other computing device, an alert signal is generated to alert the user that the computing device is not within the safety range, where the safety range may be dependent on the location of the user/other computing device.
[0053] FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary representation of a flow diagram 300 of the proposed system, in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure.
[0054] As illustrated, at step 301, a set of attributes pertaining to location of the first computing device and a second computing device associated with a user may be received. In an embodiment, the set of attributes may be received from the second computing device. At step 303, the second computing device may get associated with one of the plurality of nodes based on the location of the second computing device. Each of the plurality of nodes may be associated with a corresponding threshold distance between the first computing device and second computing device associated with the user. Upon association of the second computing device with one of the plurality of nodes, it is determined whether the first computing device is within a threshold distance corresponding to the associated node from the second computing device at step 305. At step 306, an alert may be transmitted to the user when the first computing device is not within the threshold distance corresponding to the associated node from the second computing device.
