Abstract

The invention concerns a method for warning a user (17) equipped with a terminal (4, 5, 6, 67) during modification of a content in accordance with a content syndication technology in a communication system supporting a session initiation protocol and including a warning server (1) and a content server (2). The method is characterized in that it consists in: transmitting, from a terminal (4) of the user (17) to the warning server (1), a subscription message (9, 18) of said protocol identifying a content in conformity with said content syndication technology stored on the content server (2); receiving at the warning server (1), from the content server (2), an indication concerning a modification of said content; and transmitting a notifying message (11, 10, 23) of said protocol to said user (17), from the warning server (1), when an indication concerning a modification of said content has been received.

Claims

1. A method for warning a user provided with at least one terminal on modification of a content conforming to a content syndication technology in a communication system supporting a session initiation and notification protocol and including a warning server and a content server, the method comprising:

transmitting, from a terminal of the user to the warning server, a subscription message of said protocol, said subscription message identifying a content conforming to said content syndication technology stored on the content server;

receiving on the warning server, from the content server, an indication relating to a modification of said content; and

transmitting a notification message of said protocol to said user, from the warning server, when the warning server has received an indication relating to a modification of said content.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1, in which said notification message is transmitted to the user via at least one of the user'"'"'s terminals and in which said content is used by a content reader conforming to the content syndication technology within said terminal.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 or 2, in which said notification message is adapted to at least one protocol supported by at least one of the terminals of the user.

4. A communication system supporting a session initiation and notification protocol, said system comprising a warning server able to communicate with at least one user provided with at least one terminal and a content server able to store at least one content conforming to a content syndication technology, the communication system comprising:

means for receiving on the warning server, from a terminal of the user, a subscription message of said protocol, said subscription message identifying a content conforming to said content syndication technology stored on the content server;

means for receiving on the warning server, from the content server, an indication relating to a modification of said content; and

means for transmitting a notification message of said protocol to said user, from the warning server, when the warning server has received an indication relating to a modification of said content.

5. The communication system as claimed in claim 4, further comprising means for adapting the notification message to at least one protocol supported by at least one of the terminals of the user.

6. A warning server supporting a session initiation and notification protocol, comprising:

a first receiver, wherein the first receiver receives, from a terminal of a user, a subscription message of said protocol, said subscription message identifying a content conforming to a content syndication technology stored on a content server;

a second receiver, wherein the second receiver receives, from the content server, an indication relating to a modification of said content; and

a transmitter, wherein the transmitter transmits a notification message of said protocol to said user when said warning server has received an indication relating to a modification of said content.

7. A computer program capable of being implemented on a warning server, said computer program comprising code instructions which, when run on said warning server, performs the steps of:

receiving, from a terminal of a user, a subscription message of said protocol, said subscription message identifying a content conforming to a content syndication technology stored on a content server;

receiving, from the content server, an indication relating to a modification of said content; and

transmitting a notification message of said protocol to said user when said warning server has received an indication relating to a modification of said content.
