Abstract:
1. An article of manufacture including a non-transitory computer readable storage medium to physically store instructions, which when executed by a computer, cause the computer to: enable an application to define a context vector, wherein the context vector represents a grouping of context IDs; enable a target application to define a target context vector; enable the application to assign a context ID to the defined context vector, wherein the context ID includes a description of context information stored in the context ID; enable the target application to define invoking access to the context ID; integrate the application with a global context unit upon receiving an initiation from the application to access context information of the global context unit; receive a current context information of the application, the current context information is based on the execution of the application; store the current context information in the context ID associated with the context vector in the global context unit; receive a request from the target application to access the context ID through the defined target context vector; and provide access to the current context information stored in the context ID in the global context unit for the target application.
