A system for performing document services using mobile computing devices provides users of the system with document references that can be transmitted over integrated wireless and wire-based communication services. The system includes workstations, files servers, printers and other devices coupled to a wire-based network. Mobile computing devices are coupled to the wire-based network through either IR (infrared) or RF (radio) transceiver gateways. Each mobile computing device appears to hold a user's personal collection of documents by being programmed to receive, transmit, and store document tokens. A user interface at the mobile computing devices provide users with means for fast and easy access to document services that are proximate to where they are physically located. Through the user interface, a user queries a document device proximate to their physical location. Responsive to the query, a hierarchical list of available services is displayed at the user interface. The hierarchical list provides the user with immediate access to the queried document device, as well as links to other document devices that are ordered in a location and class specific hierarchy. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION In accordance with the invention there is provided a method and apparatus therefor, for operating a system of token-aware document services.
The system includes a token-enabled server that records a database of document tokens.
The token-enabled server is coupled to a network of file servers for storing the documents referenced by the document tokens.
Each document token identifies a location of a document stored on the network.
The token-enabled server receives, from a mobile computing device, a request for available document services for performing with document tokens.
In addition, the token-enabled server receives, with the request for available document services received from the mobile computing device, a context identifier for providing an indication of physical location.
The context identifier specifies a physical location from which the request for document services is transmitted by the mobile computing device.
In accordance with one aspect of the invention, the token-enabled server develops a hierarchically ordered list of available document services using the context identifier.
The context identifier is associated with a unique document device coupled to the network.
The hierarchically ordered list provides two levels of access to document services available for document tokens.
The first level of access provides immediate access to perform a document service available at the unique document device.
The second level of access provides indirect access to additional document services that are available at other document devices.
Once developed, the token-enable server transmits the hierarchically ordered list of available document services to the mobile computing device.
