  • Patent number: 8819405
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for remotely accessing a mass storage unit and a security storage unit in a portable communicating object. According to the invention, a terminal, such as a mobile device, which is associated with a portable communicating object, such as a multimedia smart card, includes an agent for facilitating access from a server to a mass storage unit capable of storing multimedia data and a security storage unit in the portable communicating object via a communication network. The agent establishes a single communication channel between the remote server and the terminal and processes data transmitted from one of the two elements including the server and one of the storage units of the portable communicating object to the agent so that the agent can transmit the data to the other of the two elements.

  • Patent number: 8407359
    Abstract: The downloading of data from a server into one (Cn) of the portable communicating objects (C1 CN), such as chip cards or mobile terminals, over a radiocommunications network involves: a preprocessing of data (PRET) in the server into at least one data message intended for the communicating object; a sending (E) of the data message from the server to the communicating object; a reception (R) by the server of an acknowledgement of reception by the communicating object, and; a post-processing of data (POST) in the server contingent on the acknowledgement of reception. The pre-processings of data (P1) and post-processings of data (P3) concerning the communicating objects are respectively executed before and after sending the data message and receiving the acknowledgements of reception (P2) concerning the communicating objects. The server communicates with the radiocommunications network only during the sending and receiving of messages.

  • Patent number: 8073937
    Abstract: Content data available in a server is downloaded to portable communicating objects via a radio communication network during a data downloading campaign initiated by a portable communicating object upon transmission of a request of content availability to the server when at least one request transmission triggering element fulfills a rule stored in the portable communicating object. Upon reception of the content availability request, one of the devices including the server and the portable communicating object determines whether the content data are available for the portable communicating object so as to transmit the same thereto.

  • Patent number: 7933585
    Abstract: The invention solves the problem of systematic image marking of portable communicating objects, such as smart cards or mobile terminals, involved in a campaign in a database connected to a downloading server, thereby releasing the server. Access to a communicating object targeted by the campaign is authorized for a single-unit operation while the server manages the preprocessing of data for the communicating object during the campaign. Access is inhibited for a single-unit operation concerning an object targeted by the campaign when access is requested while the server manages transmission of a data message to the communicating object during the campaign. Access is also prohibited while the server manages an acknowledgement transmitted by the communicating object and the post-processing of data concerning the communicating object.
