Abstract:
A device and a method for storing and sharing data from objects connected to an Internet network, and a method for restoring data coming from objects connected to an Internet network. A storage and sharing device is implemented in the network and enables a control device connected to the network to browse among the stored data and to command reading of a selected item of data in the data storage and sharing device by a restoring device connected to network. The data storage and sharing device includes interfaces for loading data, each interface receiving data from at least one object connected to the Internet network. Hence, a communication terminal can access, by using a single device, data coming from all of the connected objects thereof even when these objects use different communication protocols and/or when the communication terminal does not use the communication protocol of the connected object.
Abstract:
A method for singularizing frames to be transmitted by an object connected to a server via a low-power wireless communication network. The singularization method includes an integration, in a frame to be transmitted identifying the transmitting connected object and including payload data, of at least: a counter that can be incremented as a function of the frame to be transmitted, the counter having a predefined dimension; and a supplementary index that can be modified upon a zeroing of the counter. Thus, two frames originating from one and the same object with the same payload data will be unique because they will include at least one counter and at least one supplementary index that are distinct. The use of the supplementary index makes it possible, without reducing the lifetime of the connected object, to singularize a greater number of frames.
Abstract:
A method for recovering a network key, a method for transmitting a network key, and a method for managing recovery of a network key. The method for recovering a network key from a point of access to a network is implemented by a terminal, with the network key allowing the terminal to be associated with the point of access during the first connection of the terminal to the point of access. The recovery method includes receiving, by a terminal, a network key transmitted via a mediation server by a point of access, the terminal having been identified by the mediation server by using an association, prior to the first connection, of an identifier of the terminal and an identifier of the point of access. Thus, the key cannot be easily recovered by a third party and limits intrusions into the private network managed by the point of access.
Abstract:
One embodiment comprises obtaining an identification of at least one multimedia content and at least one destination user; constructing a message by a challenge definition module installed on a terminal on the basis of at least one interaction with a sender user. The construction may comprise (a) producing metadata defining, in association with the multimedia content, both a challenge for presenting to the destination user and also an expected response to the challenge, the metadata combining the information required for executing the challenge on at least one terminal of the destination user; (b) inserting the metadata and an identifier in the message, the identifier identifying the terminal of the destination user of the message; and (c) using a telecommunications network to send the message and data giving access to the multimedia content to a server for relaying the metadata and the multimedia content to the terminal of the destination user.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a transaction transfer method, a transaction method and a terminal carrying out at least one of said methods.One subject matter of the invention is a method for transferring transactions from a first communication terminal onto a second communication terminal, the transaction transfer method comprising a provision by a first terminal of an element relating to a transaction started on the first terminal intended for a second terminal, the second terminal performing a transaction as a function of said element.A transaction may thus be started on a first terminal and ended on a second terminal, in particular for the purpose of securing the transaction.
Abstract:
One embodiment relates to a method of transferring configuration information for a connected object wherein the method is performed by a terminal. The method may comprise detecting a connection of a mass memory on a peripheral connector of the terminal, associating the detected mass memory with at least one item of configuration information for the connected object, obtaining the at least one item of configuration information, and transferring the at least one item of configuration information to the mass memory.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for synchronizing between rendering of a multimedia stream by a rendering device and execution of an operation by a software application by at least one execution device. The method includes in the rendering device: receiving the multimedia stream comprising pieces of additional data synchronized with a multimedia item; detecting, in the multimedia stream, an item of destination information indicating that the pieces of additional data are intended for a distinct execution device; extracting the pieces of additional data; transmitting the pieces of additional data to the execution device; triggering the execution, by a software application, of an operation to process the transmitted additional data; and rendering the multimedia item.
