The invention relates to a method for high-speed data stream transmission
to an Internet-type network (RI) between a remote server (4) and a smart
card terminal (1). The terminal and the card each include a specific
transmission protocol layer (13, 23a). These layers include two
intelligent agents (T.sub.2, T.sub.1, S.sub.2, S.sub.1), one being a
server and the other being a client. The intelligent agents (T.sub.2,
T.sub.1, S.sub.2, S.sub.1) enable the establishment of bidirectional data
exchange sessions. The card then has the function of a client/web server.
A filter (28) cooperates with the intelligent agents (T.sub.2, T.sub.1,
S.sub.2, S.sub.1) to form a "proxy"-type function (27) implanted directly
in the card. The data stream includes critical data that pass through the
card and opaque data that pass directly to the terminal (1) under the
control of the filter (28).Application in particular to multimedia data
streams.
