Abstract: A service directory lists information on service provider communicating objects, on related services accessible from these communicating objects and on coverage areas associated with these services. When a service consumer communicating object is located and identified, a list of accessible services is determined depending on the location and identification of this service consumer communicating object, in relation to the directory services to the coverage areas associated therewith, and at least the transmission to the identified service consumer communicating object of information relating to the services of the determined list is triggered.

Abstract: A method for managing information between communicating objects, the information originating from information provider communicating objects and having to be consulted from information display communicating objects, where in a prior step, a system of reference is defined specifically for referencing in a unique manner a set of locations and providing, for each location of the set of locations, an identification. Information data are acquired and are stored, each information datum comprising an item of information to be disseminated provided by an information provider communicating object and a parameter indicating the identification of a location defined at the prior step and associated with the information. Stored information is accessed associated with the location by way of at least one information display communicating object situated at the location.

Abstract: The program memory comprises a first segment (MP1) containing a succession of program words including first base words (MMA) each having a size less than the sum of the respective sizes of the control words destined for the execution units (UXi), and second base words (MMB) fewer in number than that of the first base words. Facilities sequentially extract the various program words from the first segment of the program memory. A storage facility (RG) is connected to the output of the program memory. Facilities (MXM) update the content of the storage facility at least on the basis of each extracted second base word, and computational facilities (MEB) sequentially compute certain at least of the various groups of control words, on the basis of the combining according to at least one predetermined logic relation, of the content of the storage facility and of an extracted first base word, so as to minimize the memory size of the said program code.
