`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`Provided is a distributed system and method for enabling new
`and useful location dependent features and functionality to
`mobile data processing systems. Mobile data processing sys
`tems interact with each other as peers in communications and
`interoperability. Indirectly located mobile data processing
`systems are located relative other mobile data processing
`systems, and are automatically located using whereabouts
`data of directly located mobile data processing systems and/
`or whereabouts data of other indirectly located mobile data
`processing systems. A mobile data processing system may
`dynamically take on roles of being directly located or indi
`rectly located, depending on the environment and capabilities
`available at a particular time. Reference whereabouts data is
`appropriately shared between mobile data processing sys
`tems to carry out automatic location techniques ensuring
`mobile data processing systems are kept up to date with their
`own whereabouts and whereabouts of others, regardless of
`the freely moving travels of any of the mobile data processing
`systems involved, and the location technologies that may or
`may not be available when needed. A confidence is associated
`to whereabouts data shared for facilitating selection of the
`best candidate data used in determining new whereabouts
`information.
