ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for use in a system comprising a host device and at least one peripheral device which are enabled to interact with each other. In order to improve the flexibility of the system, the method comprises a step of transmitting information indicative of a time required for an initialization of the at least one peripheral device from the at least one peripheral device to the host device, and a step of evaluating in the host device the information indicative of a time required by the at least one peripheral device for an initialization. The invention relates equally to a corresponding host device, to a corresponding peripheral device, to a corresponding system and to corresponding software program products.
