Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03032156A2] The invention relates to a method for updating software (sof) in different terminals (PEC, PAL), which are connected to a communications network (NET), said network allowing communication between the terminals. On request, the software state of software (sof) that is running on one of the terminals (PEC) is transmitted to the second terminal (PAL) via the communications network (NET) and software that is running on the second terminal (PAL), which corresponds to the software (sof) on the first terminal (PEC), is provided with the transmitted software state and continues to run on the second terminal (PAL) with the last current state of the first terminal (PEC). The software used is, for example, an agent software.
