Abstract

A computer-implemented method includes: receiving, by a computer device, conference information defining parameters of a conference; receiving, by the computer device, conference constraints relative to location types; generating, by the computer device, a rule set based on the conference constraints and the location types; obtaining, by the computer device, location information of participant devices connected to the conference; determining, by the computer device and for each one of the participant devices connected to the conference, whether one of the conference constraints applies to the one of the participant devices based on the location of the one of the participant devices and the rule set; and in response to determining that one of the conference constraints applies to the one of the participant devices, the computer device applying the one of the conference constraints applies to the one of the participant devices.
