The present invention relates to the field of methods of communication between software modules and more particularly software buses. There is described a software bus which allows communication between software modules. This communication occurs within a machine and between machines and operates interchangeably for the software module whether one is dealing with a process, a thread or a simple task. The communication relies on mechanisms adapted to the multitask level at which the sender and receiver software modules operate. It is based on a hierarchical architecture, phases of discovery and of recording of the various software modules having to communicate via the bus.
