Abstract: Electronic devices may determine tasks of interpreting information sensed by sensors, for example, recognition tasks, and operations to be performed by the electronic devices, for example, control tasks, based on types of connected electronic devices. Information sensed by one of the connected electronic devices may be shared with another electronic device, and the other electronic device may perform an operation based on the shared information. A task of interpreting information sensed by a sensor of one of the connected electronic devices may be performed based on a format suitable for being used by another electronic device. Furthermore, the electronic devices may select an electronic device to perform the determined recognition tasks and the determined control tasks based on resource states of the electronic devices.
