Abstract: A method for establishing a telephone communication between a first terminal and a second terminal. The first and second terminals each have a main caller identifier, and the second terminal additionally has a secondary caller identifier. This method is implemented when the user of the first terminal seeks to communicate with the user of the second terminal by using the secondary caller identifier of the second terminal. The method allows redirecting the telephone call of the first terminal to a voicemail system associated with the secondary caller identifier when the user of the second terminal does not answer this telephone call. The voicemail system is associated with a voicemail system caller identifier selected from a database connected to a communication management platform.

Abstract: An energy-efficient assignment of a task set T to a group of M processing devices models the process of deciding the assignment as a combinatorial optimization problem having an objective function optimizing the power consumption of the devices when executing subsets of the tasks, under a constraint that the total utilization of the task subset assigned to each respective processing device is lower than a threshold depending on the number of its processor cores. The objective function may be: min ? ? i = 1 M P i ( ? i ) , where ?i denotes the subset of tasks allocated to the ith device, and Pi(?i) represents power consumption of the ith device when executing ?i, and the constraint U?i?Mi/4 for all the devices, where U?i is the total utilization of ?i executing on the ith device, and Mi denotes the number of cores of the ith device. Solving the problem using a MaxMin or genetic algorithm gives good energy efficiency.

Abstract: A process implemented by an administration entity for configuring an access unit of a communication network in a virtualised environment having an operating software application. The process includes receiving, from a mediating entity of the operating software application, a log message of the operating software application associating an identifier of the operating software application and an identifier of a node supporting the operating software application. Prior to or following receipt of the log message, the administration entity determines an operating software application for hosting the access unit based on a test relating to a placement criterion relating to a data stream conveyed by the access unit. The administration entity then emits, to the mediating entity of the determined operating software application, a message for configuring the access unit in the determined operating software application, the message including an identifier of at least one other access unit of the communication network.
