Systems, methods and interfaces are disclosed for managing communications associated with a mobile communication device. Mobile communication devices process environmental inputs and transmit mobile communication device context information to a communication management system. The context information may, for example, reflect the motion and/or geographic location of the mobile device, and may reflect the risk associated with using the device to handle a call or other communications session. The communication management system uses the context information, optionally in combination with communication device profiles, to determine how to manage incoming and/or ongoing calls or other communication sessions. Mobile device users may also be inhibited from initiating communication sessions.

What is claimed is: 1. A power-efficient method of assessing mobile communications context information, the method comprising:for each collection interval in a first set of collection intervals associated with a first transit state:obtaining multiple sets of input corresponding to information from sensor associated with a mobile communication device environment;determining whether the multiple sets of input are indicative of a transition of a mobile communication device from the first transit state to a second transit state; anddetermining whether to modify at least one interval of the first set of collection intervals based on anticipated variance in information to be received, the anticipated variance based on information received during a previous collection interval; andtransmitting an updated context change for the mobile communication device based on a determination of the transition from the first transit state to the second transit state.
