Abstract: A recording medium including computer program instructions which cause a computer to execute a method of assigning IP addresses to mobile IP nodes in heterogeneous networks in which a home agent dynamically assigns a temporary IP care-of address to a static IP home address when the mobile node is moved in the heterogeneous networks, the dynamic care-of address indicating the topologically current network location of the mobile node and IP data packets having the IP home address of the mobile node as a destination address being redirected to the care-of address of the mobile node, including checking the mobile node for available physical network interfaces, generating a lookup table with the available and configurable physical network interfaces, linking to one of the available physical network interfaces, accessing the heterogeneous networks via a permanent virtual IP network interface generated in the mobile node, the generated permanent virtual IP network interface being linked to the current network, and i

Abstract: Method for anonymously transmitting a message by means of a telecommunication network. A first exchange (2) between the sender (1) and the receiver (4) of said message replaces identifying features (MSISDN) of the sender (1) of the message by a first alias identification (CID). The conversion between the said identifying features (MSISNDN) and the first alias identification (CID) is permanent, or at least secure for several weeks. The first alias identification (CID) is replaced by a second alias identification (CMID) at the receiver (4) or in a further exchange (3). The second alias identification (CMID) enables the receiver to identify the transmitter.

Abstract: A transaction method, a service center, and a device for carrying out the transaction method. In the transaction method object picture data relating to a transaction object, for example a product or a service, are made visible to a user, for instance by projecting image signals corresponding to the object picture data directly on the retina of the user. Eye features of the user are determined while the object picture data, made visible, are viewed by him/her, for example by the light being captured that is reflected by the retina owing to the projected image signals and retina patterns of the user being determined from the determined reflection data and the associated object picture data. The determined eye features with object data relating to the transaction object are linked in a transaction record and the transaction record is forwarded to a processing unit.

The value codes are generated and stored in a database of a value code issuer. A value code is ordered by a customer through transmission of order data, containing at least one monetary amount value, via an order channel, to the value code issuer. A delivery number, linked in the database with the value code, is transmitted via a delivery channel to the customer, and the receipt of the transmitted delivery number is confirmed by the customer through transmission of at least one part of the delivery number via a confirmation channel to the value code issuer. A value, linked in the database to the monetary amount value, is transmitted via a delivery channel to the customer, and a monetary amount value corresponding to at least the monetary amount value linked to the confirmed value code is charged to the customer.
