Abstract
A method, a system, and a computer program product provide for changing a boundary between zones. This includes setting a location of a boundary which defines a part of a zone; detecting that an object moves into the zone across the boundary; and in response to the detection, changing the location of the boundary in a direction away from the object, compared to the location of the boundary before the change.
