Contextual generation of ephemeral networks

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for contextual generation of an ephemeral network are provided. The method detects an initiating event for network generation associated with a user of a first computing device. The method determines a duration of the initiating event. A set of network members is determined based on the initiating event and the duration. The method establishes an ephemeral network, connecting at least a portion of computing devices associated with the set of network members. The ephemeral network is terminated in response to detecting a completion event. In response to terminating the ephemeral network, member information for the set of network members is removed from the portion of the computing devices.
