Abstract:
1. A processor-implemented method comprising: at a session management component of a session management server, receiving a first signal from a first device that initiates generation and transmission of the first signal in response to the first device determining a change in functionality detected within the first device; causing an operation on a second device to be suspended at a first reference point in response to receiving the first signal that was initially generated and transmitted from the first device in response to the first device determining the change in functionality detected within the first device, the first device being used by a user signed on to a network service; and responsive to receiving a second signal from the first device, send a resuming signal to a third device to cause the operation to resume on the third device, wherein the operation is resumed on the third device at the first reference point or at a second reference point at which the operation in the second device was suspended, and wherein the session management component keeps track of the first reference point and the second reference point.
