A method and device for aggregating connected objects of a communications network. The connected objects have at least one basic feature. The method includes the following steps implemented on an aggregation device, in order to obtain a group avatar suitable for representing the connected objects: obtaining at least one basic feature; obtaining at least one feature of the group object, linked to a basic feature; and creating the group avatar including: a structure having a basic feature; a structure having a group feature; a structure for linking the group feature to at least one basic feature; and a group proxy structure having an association between an address of the group avatar and an address of the connected objects.

Aggregation of connected objects

A method which serves to display a new rectangular window in a display zone on a screen, the display zone already including at least one first rectangular window, the new window being displayed progressively towards the inside and starting from an edge of the first window is disclosed. In one aspect, the method comprises shifting the content of the first window from the edge through a distance corresponding to the dimension of said new window in a second direction perpendicular to a first direction parallel to the edge. The method may also comprise displaying the new window along the edge, the display having the effect of correspondingly reducing said first window in the second direction and, once the entire new window has been displayed, managing the scrolling of the initial content in the first window.
