A platform management system includes: a control unit configured to implement a device smart agent to: receive a management request; calculate a projected resource usage for an agent host device based on execution of the management request; determine a performance degradation of a primary device function of the agent host device based on the projected resource usage; determine a request type of the management request based on the performance degradation; generate an inter-device communication based on the request type of the management request; and a communication unit, coupled to the control unit; configured to: transmit the inter-device communication from the device smart agent for receipt by a non-agent device or an agent enabled device.

Multifunctional platform system with device management mechanism and method of operation thereof

A method of operation of a social network system includes: receiving a service request for accessing a peripheral device revealed through a social graph of a social platform; determining a request type for matching the service request to a device service provided by the peripheral device; authorizing the device service through the social graph for accessing the peripheral device; and generating a service command based on the request type of the device service authorized for executing the device service for the peripheral device.

Social network system with access provision mechanism and method of operation thereof

A device hub system includes: a control unit configured to: generate a workroom for providing access to a workroom accessible resource, including an enterprise multifunctional printer, protected by a network firewall; provide authentication for a participant device to access the workroom; receive a workroom request through the workroom; generate a workroom sharable information from the workroom request; and a communication unit, coupled to the control unit, configured to distribute the workroom sharable information within the workroom.

Device hub system with resource access mechanism and method of operation thereof

A method of operation of a computing system includes: receiving an application package for operating on a first device and a second device; parsing the application package for an ecosystem, a first application, and a second application; installing the first application for operating with the first device; and installing the second application for operating on the second device and with the first application.

Computing system with support for ecosystem mechanism and method of operation thereof

A method of operation of a provider controlling platform system includes: determining a provider criterion for selecting a service provider; determining a device capability for selecting a device service for a peripheral device; generating a selection threshold based on the provider criterion, the device capability, or a combination thereof for executing the device service; and generating a service command based on the selection threshold meeting or exceeding a service request for commanding the peripheral device to execute the device service.

Platform system with provider controlling mechanism and method of operation thereof

A single point authentication component is provided that is responsible for authenticating incoming requests received via various mediums into a system of a plurality of Web services. The single point authentication component is configured to receive a request from a client for accessing one of the plurality of Web services and to determine and enforce security policies acceptable for accessing the requested Web service.

Single point authentication for web service policy definition

A system enables a client coupled to a server via a network to exchange security policy information across the network. The client is configured to determine security policy associated with the server based on a notification returned from the server. The notification having policy information embedded therein is issued by the server in response to the server's decision to deny client's access request. Based on the policy information embedded in the notification, the client is configured to generate a new access request by either acquiring information from a client user or selecting a different credential from a library of credentials.

Dynamic web service policy broadcasting/enforcement for applications

A method for obtaining resource restriction information of a client application's resource includes: receiving authentication information from one of a plurality of authentication modules; identifying a client application's resource and authentication module based on the received authentication information; locating a policy store that is associated with the identified client application's resource, the policy store containing resource restriction information for each of the plurality of authentication modules; and obtaining the resource restriction information associated with the identified authentication module from the policy store.

Policy store

An interface between a service provider application and a content providing application in a network printing system, comprising functionality for configuring the interface for the service provider to interface with the content providing application on a first level, wherein the first level comprises service provider administration properties, functionality for configuring the interface for a multi-service operator to interface with the content providing application on a second level, wherein the second level comprises multi-service level administration properties that comprise a portion of the service provider administration properties, and functionality for configuring the interface for an end user to interface with the content providing application on a third level, wherein the third level comprises end user level administration properties that comprise a portion of the multi-service provider administration properties. The service provider administration properties may comprise system maintenance, service maintenance and subscriber maintenance operations, the multi-service provider administration properties may comprise the service provider administration properties except system maintenance operations and service maintenance operations specifically relating to service provider level operations, and the end user administration properties may comprise the subscriber maintenance operations.
