ABSTRACT:
The systems and methods of the present invention provide for controlling the operation of at least one specific computing system in a network based upon the aspects of the computing system that are present for an operating session of a specific computing system by updating the configuration attributes in a base configuration file with configuration attributes contained in aspect configuration files that are associated with the specific computing system aspects, such as the specific computing element, the specific user of the computing element, the specific location of the computing element, and/or any other aspect of the computing system to generate a session configuration file for the operating session. Thus, a session configuration file may be created for any combination of aspects of the computing system associated with configuration files to properly set up the specific computing system, including any peripheral devices, for the particular operating session such that the computing element does not have to be separately configured.
