Abstract: A method for managing an incoming call in a communication terminal is described, the incoming call having an associated call identifier. The method can comprise checking the routing of an outgoing call to the call identifier associated with the incoming call, and classifying the incoming call on the basis of the result of the checking of the routing, the incoming call being classified as a malicious incoming call if the checking of the routing reveals that the outgoing call is not able to be routed. The method can be used, for example, to detect malicious calls or spam.

Abstract: A method for managing a communication call between a caller communications terminal and a called communications terminal. The caller communications terminal has a permanent main call identifier and at least one recorded temporary secondary call identifier, in association with the main call identifier, in at least one communications management device. When the caller communications terminal initiates a communication call to the called communications terminal from the secondary call identifier, such a method implements: sending, to the called terminal, a notification including at least the main call identifier, the secondary call identifier and at least one piece of identification information of a user of the calling terminal associated with said secondary call identifier; and routing the communication call to the called terminal in using the secondary call identifier.

Abstract: Method for allowing distributed running of an application between a device and a server connected via a network. The method includes the following steps carried out by a pre-processing unit: analyzing a code of the application for identifying parts that satisfy or are assumed to satisfy at least one first criterion based on resource consumption; transmitting only the identified application code parts to the server; generating from the application code an enriched application code arranged to call for the execution of one of the identified application code parts on the server only if at least one second criterion based on resource overload is satisfied at the time the application code part is to be run; and transmitting the enriched application code to the device.

Abstract: Method for allowing distributed running of an application between a device and a server connected via a network. The method includes the following steps carried out by the device: obtaining a device profile including resource capacity characteristics of the device; obtaining an application profile including resource consumption characteristics of the application; obtaining device metrics relating to real-time resource usage with respect to the device; obtaining offload rules defining conditions under which an application is to be run at least in part on a server and/or on a device, the conditions involving device resource capacity, application resource consumption and device real-time resource usage; and making a decision by an inference engine to run the application at least in part on the server and/or on the device, by evaluating the offload rules applied to the device profile, application profile and device metrics.

Abstract: A method of managing data storage for a device having a local storage memory and a user interface, the device being capable of transferring data to a network having a remote storage memory, the remote storage memory having a higher storage capacity than the local storage memory. The method comprises: obtaining, by means of said user interface of the device, a target maximum storage criterion to be satisfied by the local storage memory; and on detection that said target maximum storage criterion is not satisfied by the local storage memory, selecting a set of data stored in the local storage memory to be transferred from the device to the network for storage in the remote storage memory, in such a way that the target maximum storage criterion be subsequently satisfied by the local storage memory.
