Abstract

The invention concerns a protocol for remote launching of a software application and reserving network resources with quality of service between a caller terminal TA and a called terminal TB. Said protocol consists in: transmitting (A) from the caller terminal to the called terminal TB a reservation request for connection via a server and a transmission via an unconnected network and in establishing (B) between the caller terminal TA and the called terminal TB, a procedure for reserving network resources with quality of service by exchange of messages by transmission via the unconnected network. When the network resources reservation is accepted by the server, a connected network between the caller terminal and the called terminal is established (C) on the same physical network supporting the unconnected network via a control network RC. The connected network forms the network resource with quality of service for executing the remote software application between the caller terminal TA and the called terminal TB. The invention is applicable to a connected network, ATM network, and to an unconnected network, IP network.
