The invention concerns a method for managing the connection of a first terminal connected to a first access network accessing a communication network and capable of connecting to a second access network accessing said communication network, implemented by a management module of the communication network, said management module being capable of determining a list of access networks to which the first terminal is likely to connect. After receiving (E) a piece of connectivity information relative to a second terminal, the management method comprises a step (E) of updating the list of access networks according to the received connectivity information and a step (E) of transmitting said updated list to the first terminal such that the first terminal connects (E) to the second access network.

Method and device for managing the connection of a terminal to an access network

One embodiment relates to a method for establishing communication between at least one calling terminal and one called terminal, implemented by the calling terminal. The method comprises detecting the activation by the calling terminal of a request to establish a communication with the called terminal, obtaining a first piece of communication context information related to the calling terminal, and obtaining at least a second piece of communication context information related to the called terminal. The method also comprises determining a communication service to use in order to establish the requested communication with the called terminal, the determining being carried out from at least the first piece of communication context information and the second piece of communication context information, and sending, to the called terminal, a request for communication according to the determined communication service.

Method and device for establishing a communication

One embodiment is a device having an elongate pliable screen has first and second connection elements that connect together to hold, in a looped shape, a substrate carrying the screen, a receiver unit that receives notifications coming from an external appliance, and a control unit that causes received notifications to be rendered using a first rendering mode or a second rendering mode. The control unit detects the connection state of the first and second connection elements and causes a received notification to be rendered in the first or the second rendering mode as a function of the detected connection state between the connection elements. The first and second rendering modes may comprise respectively: displaying a symbolic or abridged picture indicative of the received notification, or displaying the content of a message conveyed by the received notification, depending on whether the first and second connection elements are connected together or disconnected.
