  • Patent number: 9294559
    Abstract: Communication element (E2) comprising at least one interface with a communication network (NTEL) containing other communication elements (E1), and a peer-to-peer network (Np2p) for processing requests (Req) from the other communication elements, consisting of nodes (N1, N2, N3, N4, N5) distributed among a set of processing devices and arranged in a circle. It is associated with a management device comprising admission means to insert a new node within the peer-to-peer network. The communication element is intended so that contextual information used for processing said requests can be stored in the nodes and is characterized in that the admission means are intended to determine a pair of adjacent nodes deployed on a same processing device and to insert the new node between the two nodes of the pair.
