Abstract: A method for managing telecommunications resources dynamically allocated to a plurality of telecommunications operators is disclosed. At least one module for centralized management of the resources carries out: receiving a request for resources emitted by a requesting module representing one of the plurality of telecommunications operators, referred to as a requesting operator, to the at least one module for centralized management of the resources; and sending, to the requesting module and in response to the request, at least one offer of resources. The at least one offer of resources comprises: a piece of common objective information, representing a resource management objective common to the plurality of telecommunications operators; and/or at least one piece of reliability information from at least one other of the plurality of telecommunications operators, referred to as an offering operator, proposing the at least one offer of resources.

The method includes receiving, a connectivity message from entities of the set, determining an eligibility value relative to each entity based on at least one received parameter and a cooperation factor between the first entity and each other entity, selecting the second entity on the basis of the determined eligibility value, transmitting a transfer message to the first entity and to the second entity.

Abstract: A method for configuring a terminal of a client user of an operator managing a first communications network. The method is implemented prior to the attachment of the terminal to a second communications network, for which transmission resources are temporarily used for routing data from the terminal to a remote server. The method includes receiving, from a control entity of the first network, a management instruction relating to the attachment of the terminal to the second network for a geographical zone. The method further includes configuring a data item relating to the control of the attachment of the terminal on the basis of the received management instruction, and transmitting, to the at least one terminal, at least one configuration parameter for attaching the terminal to the second network.

Abstract: A method for notifying a service provider, performed in a telecommunications network, said method comprising the following steps of: selecting a stream of data transported in the telecommunications network for at least one user terminal of the service provider; comparing a bandwidth value consumed by the selected data stream with a bandwidth threshold; sending a notification to the service provider, said notification comprising at least one identifier of the selected data stream and an indication of the result of the comparison.

Abstract: A method for exchanging data between a first web browser and a second web browser of a communications network. The method includes a phase of initialization, implementing the following acts in a routing device of the network placed on a default communications path between the first and second browsers: receiving a message for verifying connectivity between the browsers, the message carrying a specific attribute authorizing data exchanges between the browsers; and verifying an authorization of data exchanges between the browsers, from the specific attribute; and in the event of positive verification, modifying at least one routing table for routing data between the first browser and the second browser so as to define a replacement communications path between the browsers, passing through the routing device.

Abstract: A method for signaling a piece of congestion information regarding a first data stream routed by a first node in a network. The method includes the following acts implemented by a second node via which the first data stream and at least a second data stream are routed: obtaining a piece of congestion information regarding the second data stream, the congestion information indicating that a third node, via which the first data stream is routed, has detected a congestion situation for a routing of the second stream in a data transfer plane; checking that the first data stream has a priority level lower than that of the second data stream; and sending, to the first node, a control message in a control plane, the control message carrying the congestion information.

Abstract: Some embodiments relate to a method of authorizing the establishment of a peer-to-peer stream between two user terminals of a mobile telecommunications network. The method is implemented in a platform of the mobile telecommunications network and comprises receiving, from a server of a peer-to-peer service provider, a request to establish a peer-to-peer stream between a first user terminal and a second user terminal, the establishment request including a stream identifier, the stream identifier including at least an identifier of the first user terminal and an identifier of the second user terminal. The method also comprises deciding whether to authorize the establishment of the peer-to-peer stream between the first user terminal and the second user terminal and sending an authorization or rejection message for the peer-to-peer stream to a network gateway in charge of controlling the streams transiting on the mobile telecommunications network, the message including the stream identifier.

Abstract: A method of transmitting a data stream previously coded according to an adaptable coding between a first terminal and a second terminal through the intermediary of a session established according to an HTTP-based transport protocol is disclosed. In one aspect, collection is by the first terminal of a set of context information relating to the session, to the first terminal and to the second terminal. Then, formation is of an adaptation scheme as a function of the set of context information. Next, adaptation is of the data stream by the first terminal as a function of the adaptation scheme. Lastly, transmission is of the adapted data stream by the first terminal to the second terminal.

Abstract: In the course of an application involving real-time notification of a client by a telephone switching system, a connection between the client and a server is opened. Notification messages transmitted from the telephone switching system to the server are adjusted and sent to the client in the format of a programming language code executable by the client's browser. The programming language codes are subsequently executed by the browser, whereby the respective notification messages are displayed at the client. For transmission of the notification messages from the server to the browser, as streaming method such as HTTP streaming is use so that the connection remains open while notification messages are to be sent. The presented method can be based on standardized protocols, entails little protocol overhead and allows for facile treatment of security issues.

Abstract: In the course of an application involving real-time notification of a client (PC(CC)) by a telephone switching system (TS) a connection between the client (PC(CC)) and a server (CtC) is opened. Notification messages transmitted from the telephone switching system (TS) to the server (CtC) are adjusted and sent to the client (PC(CC)) in the format of a programming language code executable by the client's browser. The programming language codes are subsequently executed by the browser, whereby the respective notification messages are displayed at the client (PC(CC)). For transmission of the notification messages from the server (CtC) to the browser (PC(CC)) a streaming method such as HTTP streaming is used so that the connection remains open while notification messages are to be sent. The present method can be based on standardised protocols, entails little protocol overhead and allows for a facile treatment of security issues.
