Zusammenfassung: | A method and apparatus for associating a name to a device/virtual partner is provided herein. During operation, virtual-partner "names" will be determined for each co-located virtual partner. When a task is conveyed to a virtual partner, the virtual partner will perform the task only if its "name" has been called. The "name" of each virtual partner will be associated with a color shown on a device screen (i.e., the device associated with the virtual partner), object shown on a device screen, and/or color of another indicator that is displayed on the device. |
