Abstract: To control the processing of a multimedia object (OM) by a software application (AppL) implemented within a communication device (DC), a control application (AC) implemented in the communication device intercepts a call from the software application to an execution environment (EE) to carry out a basic operation on the multimedia object, the multimedia object being divided into segments each associated with control data (DonC) comprising at least some data from among semantic data (DonSm), sensitivity data (DonSb), and functionality data (DonF), associates transformation parameters (ParT) comprising at least one functionality parameter (ParF) and at least one semantic parameter (ParSm) and one sensitivity parameter (ParSb) with the call, depending upon the context in which the call is executed.

Abstract: A device (D) is dedicated to the processing of application notifications that must be transmitted to users' communication terminals (TC) via at least one transmission infrastructure (RC).

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a method for selecting a communication mode between a first and a second user of at least one communication network comprising the following steps: receiving a request sent by the first user in order to be placed into communication with the second user, determining available communication modes between the first and second user based on at least one status parameter of the second user deduced from the location of said second user and from an activity associated with that location.

Abstract: Computer program product comprising instructions to carry out profiling of a telecommunications services user in a multi-platform environment (1), such product being characterised in that it comprises: a functional explicit profiling block (7) that gathers information on the user's preferences, directly from the said user; a functional implicit profiling block (8) for the user, gathering raw data concerning the user's behaviour for each service delivery platform, such functional implicit profiling block (8) comprising aggregation means for such raw data; the profile thus shaped comprising core attributes independent from the service platform and specialised attributes depending on the platforms that are present in the environment.

Abstract: A method for automatically managing user notifications in heterogeneous formats within a mobile terminal (10) capable of receiving or generating, as well as displaying, these notifications, which method comprises the following steps: translating each notification received or generated by the mobile terminal into metadata in a single format, saving said translation within a database (2), assessing the priority of said notification based on a combination of priority criteria preset by the user, reorganizing the database (2) containing said notification, based on its priority compared with other translated notifications that have already been saved, displaying the notification on the terminal (10) based on its priority.

Abstract: A method for distributing personalized media elements to media terminals, said method comprising the following operations, carried out within a media server: determining at least one distribution criterion; preselecting a group of media elements that meet the distribution criterion (or criteria); for each media element, defining correlation criteria intrinsic with other media elements by defining metadata characteristic of the content of the media element as well as metadata characteristic of other media elements that may be combined with said media element; selecting from among the preselected group media elements exhibiting an intrinsic correlation with one another; concatenating the selected elements to form at least one eligible sequence; choosing a sequence from among the eligible sequences, distributing the chosen sequence to the media terminals.
