Abstract

This application relates to an improved manner of establishing or identifying a subgroup of users, which users belong to a larger group, and each user having a computing device, by providing a network comprising a first and a second computing device. The first computing device being configured to send out a detectable signal and the second computing device being configured to register said signal whereby a computing device subgroup is established comprising said first computing device and said second computing device.

Claims (15)

1 . A network comprising a first and a second computing device ( 100 A, 100 B), wherein said first computing device ( 100 A) being configured to

Generate a signal,

send out said signal and

said second computing device ( 100 B) being configured to

detect said signal whereby a computing device subgroup is directly established by said second computing device ( 100 B) comprising said first computing device and said second computing device.

2 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said signal comprises one of the following: an audio tune, a background noise, an ultrasonic signal, a light signal, an infra red light signal, a vibration sequence.

3 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said first computing device is further configured to associate said signal with a file to be shared.

4 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said first computing device is configured to select said signal from a group of standard audio tunes.

5 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said first computing device is configured to select said signal as background sound.

6 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said first computing device is configured to record said signal.

7 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said first computing device is configured to receive an identifier for said signal.

8 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said signal is associated with a locality.

9 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said second computing device is configured to receive an indication of said signal.

10 . The network according to claim 1 , wherein said network is a WiFi-based network.

11 . The network according to claim 1 whereby said second communication device ( 100 B) downloads a file shared by said first communication device ( 100 A).
