According to an example aspect, there is provided a method comprising: generating a smart contract with information of a number of targeted devices to perform an update, providing the smart contract for a distributed ledger for the number of targeted devices, receiving an indication to the distributed ledger on readiness to perform the update by the number of targeted devices, and receiving another indication to the distributed ledger on the performance of the update by the number of targeted devices.

Electronic device management

An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following: receive a user input; and based on the user input, provide an open instance of a first camera control application on a first apparatus as a corresponding open instance of an at least related camera control application on a second apparatus.

Camera control application

Techniques for dynamic device start up include causing the following steps in response to powering a device. A server is determined, which provides at least a portion of a user interface to operate the device. If a communications network is available, a request message is sent to the server. The request message indicates at least a request for at least first data describing at least the portion of the user interface. The user interface is rendered based at least in part on the first data. In some embodiments, a server determines first data that describes at least a portion of a user interface for a remote device. The user interface is an interface for receiving input at the remote device to operate the remote device. In response to receiving a start-up message indicating start up of the remote device, at least the first data is sent to the remote device.

Method and apparatus for dynamic network device start up

Provided herein is a method, which may include an indication that is received that a view of a task is presented by a first device. State information may be provided to a second device to permit the second device to be synchronized with the first device and to present a view of the task, either the same view or a different view than that presented by the first device. Information may also be received relating to a change in state of the task that is provided by one of the devices while a first view of the task is presented thereupon. Further, updated state information may be provided to another one of the devices to cause the other device to remain synchronized and to update a second view of the task that is presented.
