Abstract

A method is intended for controlling dissemination of data in a peer-to-peer mode between peers having wireless communication capacities. This method consists i) in creating N sets of instructions in a first peer each set being intended to be used for carrying out an action relative to these data and to be deleted after having been used, and ii) when this first peer cannot use locally remaining sets of instructions relative to these data, in transferring at least one of these remaining sets of instructions from this first peer to at least one second peer in order that this remaining set of instructions could possibly be used by this second peer.
