Abstract
A method, a synchronization server, a corresponding terminal, and a system for transmitting a message intended for a first terminal, referred to as a destination terminal, from a second terminal, referred to as a source terminal, to at least one third terminal, referred to as an associated terminal, sharing a same identifier with the source terminal. The method includes transmitting from the source terminal to a synchronization server a first synchronization message, in which the message intended for the destination terminal is inserted, and recovering by using the at least one associated terminal the message intended for the destination terminal from the synchronization server by using at least a second synchronization message.
Claims14
A method comprising:
- transmitting a message intended for a first terminal, called a recipient terminal, from a second terminal, called source terminal, to at least one third terminal, called an associated terminal, sharing a same identifier with the source terminal, the transmitting comprising:
- transmitting, from the source terminal to a synchronization server, a first synchronization message into which the message intended for the recipient terminal is inserted;
- and
- said at least one associated terminal retrieving the message intended for the recipient terminal from the synchronization server by way of at least one second synchronization message.
A synchronization server comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by the at least one processor, configure the synchronization server to:
- exchange synchronization messages with a first terminal, called a source terminal, and at least one second terminal, called an associated terminal, sharing a same identifier with the source terminal, and
- extract a message intended for a third terminal, called a recipient terminal, from a first synchronization message received by the synchronization server and insert said message into a second synchronization message to be transmitted to said at least one associated terminal.
A source terminal comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by the at least one processor, configure the source terminal to:
- insert a message intended for another terminal, called a recipient terminal, into a synchronization message, and
- transmit said synchronization message to a synchronization server, so that at least one other terminal, called an associated terminal, is able to retrieve the message intended for the recipient terminal from said synchronization server.
