    Abstract: Method for resolving name identifiers. Existing naming identifier resolution solutions give priority to one aspect, performance of a service or protection of privacy, over the other without it being possible to deviate therefrom. This lack of flexibility is detrimental to the user's quality of experience. This also impacts resource management for various communication equipment involved in the resolution of naming identifiers. The proposed solution makes it possible to give priority to performance or respecting privacy on a case-by-case basis. On the basis of an authorization to share a location of the equipment, the resolver gives priority to transmitting either a network address of a server associated with the naming identifier to be resolved requiring location information of the equipment, giving priority to performance, or a network address of a server associated with the naming identifier to be resolved not requiring location information of the equipment, giving priority to respecting privacy.

    Abstract: A method for allocating resources of a network infrastructure in order to provide a telecommunication service is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a resource orchestrator, a request to instantiate virtualized functions on servers; determining servers to be allocated and resources of the network infrastructure enabling connectivity between the servers, based on the instantiation request; sending, to the determined resources, a configuration request enabling connectivity between the determined servers; and sending, to the determined servers, a request to allocate computing means on the determined servers.

    Abstract: The communications established on a communication path between two nodes, for example between a client and server, are increasingly encrypted, at least from the transport layer and to the application layer in the Open Systems Interconnection model. However, the devices present on the communication path may in certain cases or for certain services, intervene not only to transport the messages but also to read, edit or add data in the message. In addition, it may also be desirable that only “authorized” devices can carry out these actions. In order to intervene on these data, it would be necessary that the devices on the communication path have available all the keys used by the nodes to encrypt and decrypt the data of the messages, which is difficult to envisage. A method for editing enables a device, capable of intercepting a data message on a communication path between two nodes, to edit the data under the control of the nodes, while ensuring that a device cannot access the data edited by another device on the path.

    Abstract: A method is described for installing a virtualized network function. The method is implemented in a service operating entity, and contributes to the implementation of a communications service, in a first data center of a group of data centers of a virtualized communications architecture, on the basis of a profile defined by a set of virtualized network function placement parameters specific to the type of virtualized network function. The profile, obtained from a profile management entity, is used to determine the first data center of the group. The identifier of the data center is then added to the profile and is transmitted to an administration entity of the virtualized architecture with a request for installation of the virtualized function in the determined first data center.

    Abstract: A content distribution network is made up of terminals and servers that are connected as a network and cooperate in order to make content or data available to users. In order to be able to control access to the content via certain terminals, a solution called “URL signing” has been discussed. A “URL signing” solution requires establishing an active connection between a terminal requesting content and an originating server associated with the requested content. The solution relates to a method for accessing content implemented by a cache server, thus dispensing with the need for an active connection between a terminal requesting content and the originating server associated with the requested content.

    Abstract: A method for discriminating a first message concerning a first application from among a set of messages concerning a plurality of applications, transmitted by a terminal device to a data server via a routing device, able to apply a processing operation to an attribute in relation to the first message. The method is implemented by the terminal device and includes: adding an attribute in relation to the first message to an information packet, the packet grouping attributes to which the processing operation is applied; applying a tag to the information packet including the added attribute; and transmitting the information packet comprising the applied tag to the data server.

    Abstract: A method for managing resources of a converged fixed access and mobile radio telecommunications network is disclosed. Each operator of a plurality of mobile operators has at least one base station connected to a mobile radio part of the network. According to such a method, a centralized resource allocation management module carries out: receiving at least one request for resources, called mobile client request, emitted either by a mobile radio resource management module of each of the mobile operators, or by a first centralized resource request management module from at least one mobile radio service request previously received from the mobile radio resource management module of each of the mobile operators; and sending at least one resource allocation offer to the mobile radio resource management modules according to the at least one mobile client request and at least one predetermined resource allocation offer rule.
