Abstract: A method of distributing applications in a first network destined for user terminals is provided. The method includes downloading an application to a user terminal via a first download server associated with the first network, the downloaded application being stored in an entity within a second network interconnected with the first network. Prior to downloading, the method includes: sending, from the first download server, a message containing rules relating to applications likely to be downloaded by the first download server, to a central control server; receiving, by a second download server associated with the second network, a download request sent from the first download server; sending, by the second download server, a response message to the first download server, the response message including data allowing downloading; and transmitting a message containing information relating to the downloading of the application, from the second download server to the central control server.

Abstract: A method for monitoring a voice-based conference based on the exchange of notification messages between Web terminal devices (PC(CC), PCVoIP, PC2, PC3) is proposed. The conference is monitored via an agenda that can be dynamically updated. Updates are distributed to conference participants by means of a streaming mechanism. The present method adds new features to voice-based conferences. Amendments or changes of the conference agenda, identified action points and a summary of the conference can be communicated to participants with Web terminal devices (PC(CC), PCVoIP, PC2, PC3) in real time.
