Abstract
A method (of operating a mobile parameter-sensing node (e.g., a mobile phone) connectable wirelessly to a remote host (e.g., a base station or NIB)) includes: sampling values of parameters that are internal to and/or ambient to the node; selectively collecting data representing the sampled values according to a first subject list (defining which ones amongst the parameters will have data representative thereof collected) and/or a first frequencies-of-collection list (of collection frequencies at which the data are to be collected); analyzing, locally to the node, the collected data in terms of alarm criteria; and selectively collecting data according to a second subject list and/or a second frequencies-of-collection list when one or more of the alarm criteria are satisfied, the second subject list and the second frequencies-of-collection list being more inclusive than the first subject list and the second frequencies-of-collection list.
