Abstract
The invention aims to reduce the number of computer applications to be integrated in a mobile terminal in order to implement the functionalities offered to a user: IM, MAIL, BLOG, etc.
The invention also aims to simplify the communication networks, the exchanges between mobile terminals and source servers, and also the management of formats.
A communication network comprises at least one mobile terminal (TM) designed to receive information in a target format, and source servers (SS1, SS2, SS3, SS4) designed to deliver information in source formats. According to the invention, an intermediate server (SPV), which is independent of the source servers (SS1, SS2, SS3, SS4), is arranged between the mobile terminal (TM) and said source servers so that the information destined for said mobile terminal passes via the intermediate server. The intermediate server (SPV) is designed to receive information in the source formats from the source servers (SS1, SS2, SS3, SS4). The intermediate server (SPV) is designed to convert to the target format the information received in the source formats, and the intermediate server (SPV) is designed to transmit to the mobile terminal (TM) the information in the target format.
