Abstract: A system for identifying and/or recommending relevant media content is provided. The system includes a relevancy component, a classification component and a notification component. The relevancy component determines a topic or an event related to media content and associates the media content with a group of media content based on the topic or the event. The classification component assigns a classifier value to the media content based on data associated with the media content and the group of media content. The notification component generates a notification message associated with the media content for a user based on the classifier value and a temporal-based relevancy value generated as a function of user context.

Abstract: A processing device identifies a plurality of media items that have been accessed by a user. The processing device determines a plurality of annotations in the plurality of media items that identify a plurality of media content sources. The processing device calculates scores for the plurality of media content sources, wherein a score for a media content source of the plurality of media content sources is calculated based at least in part on a quantity of the plurality of annotations that identify the media content source. The processing device ranks the plurality of media content sources based on the calculated scores. The processing device the provides one or more ranked media content sources for presentation to the user.

Abstract: A method for communication between a first unit and a second unit via a telecommunications network, wherein the first unit comprises a first family of applications and a second family of applications having communication capacities on the network extending beyond communication capacities of the applications of the first family, the method including: obtaining, by a confidence component belonging to the second family of applications a statement of a question to be posed to a user of the first unit in the context of an execution of an application of the first family; presenting the question by the confidence component via a user interface and capturing a response from the user by the confidence component; and for at least one type of response from the user, transmitting from the confidence component to the second unit, via the network, at least one message identifying the question presented and indicating the response captured, said message being transmitted under conditions inaccessible to the applications of

Abstract: Method of communication between a first unit and a second unit via a telecommunications network, the first unit comprising applications belonging respectively to a first family and a second family having a priori a lower degree of confidence than the first family, comprising the step of forcing at least one request originating from an application of the second family, transmitted over the network to the second unit, to include a mark associated with the second family of applications.

Abstract: A method of securing requests for access to services from a terminal (1) able to communicate with a plurality of service operators (A; B) delivering respective services, comprising the following steps: furnishing the terminal with at least one software component (6; 7) provided by an operator delivering at least one service with a particular access condition, upon a request for access to the said service from the terminal by way of a communications network, executing the software component provided by the operator locally in the terminal, the execution of the software component comprising at least the presentation to a user of the terminal of an indication defined by the operator in the component in relation to the particular access condition of the service.

Abstract: For signing of data by a given one of M delegates mandated by N titleholders, where M≧2 and N=1 or M=1 and N≧2, the terminal of the given delegate reads in a delegation server information on the delegates and the titleholders of the group thus constituted. The data and the information read and a private key of the given delegate are applied to a cryptographic algorithm to produce a signature which therefore carries a cryptographic delegation mark. The data, information, and signature are transmitted to a user terminal that can trace the characteristics of the signature delegation a posteriori.
