Abstract
A method for information management using a computer communicates with a plurality of electronic devices through a network. The method establishes a communication with each of the electronic devices, and installs an application sent from one of the electronic devices that is in communication with the computer. The method further scans all of the electronic devices in the network, and obtains information monitored by the electronic devices. Additionally, the method processes the obtained information, and displays the processed information on a screen of the computer through an interface of the application.
