Abstract: The invention relates to the field of methods of locating a mobile terminal and displaying its position on another mobile terminal.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods for assisting the orientation of a mobile terminal user. Said method, for assisting the orientation of a mobile terminal user, displays, on the screen of the mobile terminal, a map (1) of a locality, the position (2, 4) of the mobile terminal on the map, at least a part of the route to follow (11 to 14) to get from the position (2) of the mobile terminal to a destination (3) given or approved by the user of the mobile terminal, at least a part, close to the position (4) of the mobile, of the path actually followed (21) over time by the mobile terminal, display of the position (4) of the mobile terminal mobile and display of the path actually followed (21) being automatically updated over time.

Abstract: A system and a method for changing the communication means used for communication between two software agents. Each software agent has a communication module, which gives the software agents access to the communication means. In addition, the software agents have means for receiving a new communication module from the communication server.

Abstract: A mobile terminal sends to a server at least one image showing a model of the appearance of a person, as well as other items of information such as the type of an event to be attended or information about the person attending, and the server sends back to the mobile advice as to how the person can modify his or her own appearance.

Abstract: In a method of signaling an incoming call or electronic message from a given sender to the user of a receiver terminal to whom the call or message is addressed, the receiver terminal identifies the sender, allows for at least one changeable or predetermined parameter relating to the sender, and dynamically selects at least one signaling mode and/or at least one signaling device available in the receiver terminal as a function of the state of the parameter or parameters linked to the sender.

Abstract: Using a mobile terminal (2) while moving, a user has a voice conversation with a security terminal (1) provided by a security service provider. This conversation creates a situation in which it is possible to immediately send an alarm if an emergency occurs, thus repelling assaulters or abductors lurking near the user. The mobile terminal (2) is provided with GPS or the like, and position information of the mobile terminal (2) is sent to the security terminal (1). <??>The security service provider takes advertisements from advertisers selling goods or services, and prepares conversation scenarios that are the content of the conversations for automatic response based on those advertisements. The security terminal (1) firstly provides the user with a voice conversation partner proxy service based on the conversation scenarios and secondly detects emergencies by detecting emergency messages from the mobile terminal (2) or detecting the interruption of the conversation.

Abstract: The invention concerns methods of exchanging information between a mobile terminal and a server. It consists in a method comprising a step of sending at least one photo from a mobile terminal to a server, a step of the server analyzing the photo that has been sent, a step of associating with the photo that has been analyzed information relating to the content of the photo, and a step of sending the mobile terminal at least a portion of information associated with the photo. The mobile terminal supplies the server with additional information to assist the server to identify a subset of the photo and the server uses the additional information to identify a subset of the photo.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of methods of locating a mobile terminal and displaying its position on another mobile terminal.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method comprising: a step of a communications network server sending the map of a site to a mobile telephone; a main display step of displaying on the screen of the mobile telephone the map (1) and main icons (2) representing particular locations situated on the map; a secondary display step following the user of the mobile telephone selecting a main icon (2) of displaying on the screen of the mobile telephone a plurality of secondary icons (3) corresponding to respective information resources relating to the location corresponding to said selected main icon (2), the secondary display step requiring no more of the user of the mobile telephone than selecting the main icon (2); and a step following the user of the mobile telephone selecting a said secondary icon (2) of putting the user into communication with the information resource corresponding to said selected secondary icon (3), this step of putting the user into communication requiring no more of the user of the mobile telephone

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of forming and managing itineraries or routes and to a network implementing the method. The method of forming and managing itineraries or routes consists in providing a plurality of software modules each controlling and verifying one or more means and/or resources, and having means for communicating with one or more other modules to form an itinerary by building up an ordered chain or succession of software modules allocated to said itinerary and each locked in a given state that depends on its contribution to said itinerary, and in dismantling said itinerary after it has been used by releasing said software modules allocated thereto, the various stages of existence of such an itinerary being defined by consecutive operating sequences affecting said software modules and their associated means and/or resources, and comprising successive allocation, control/verification, and release sequences.
