Methods and device for electronic entities for the exchange and use of rights

A method of transferring at least one item of data representative of at least one right between two portable electronic entities, at least one of said portable electronic entities comprising a short range wireless communication device configured to transmit said at least one item of data to use said at least one right, said portable electronic entities being suitable for communicating directly or indirectly via a long range communication interface, the method comprising the steps of:

• signing said at least one item of data by one of said portable electronic entities;
• transmitting said at least one signed item of data to the other of said portable electronic entities, said at least one signed item of data being transmitted via said long range communication interface;
• transmitting said at least one stored item of data via said short range wireless communication device to use said at least one right represented by said at least one item of data;
• and
• transmitting an application configured to process said at least one signed item of data representative of the at least one right to the other of said portable electronic entities, the application being transmitted to the other of the portable electronic entities in a same message with the at least one signed item of data.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium on which is stored computer-executable code of a computer program for transferring at least one item of data representative of at least one right between two portable electronic entities, at least one of said portable electronic entities comprising a short range wireless communication device configured to transmit said at least one item of data to use said at least one right, said portable electronic entities being configured to communicate directly or indirectly via a long range communication interface, the computer program comprising instructions which, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform each of the steps of:

• receiving said at least one item of data by one of said portable electronic entities from the other of said portable electronic entities via said long range communication interface;
• authenticating said at least one item of data by said one of said electronic entities;
• storing said at least one item of data in said one of said electronic entities;
• and
• transmitting said at least one stored item of data via said short range wireless communication device to use said at least one right represented by said at least one item of data,
• wherein said reception step comprises a step of reception of an application configured to process said at least one received item of data representative of the at least one right, the application being received by the one of the portable electronic entities in a same message with the at least one item of data.

A device for transferring at least one item of data representative of at least one right between two portable electronic entities, the device comprising:

• a short range communication device configured to transmit said at least one item of data to use said at least one right;
• a communication device configured to transmit said at least one item of data between said portable electronic entities via a long range communication interface;
• a storage storing said at least one item of data;
• a processor configured to receive or transmit said at least one item of data and an application configured to process the at least one item of data representative of the at least one right and configured to use the at least one right associated with said at least one item of data, the at least one item of data and the application configured to process the at least one item of data being received or transmitted together in a same message;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit said at least one stored item of data via the short range wireless communication device to use said at least one right represented by said at least one item of data.
