The appendix includes a decoder coupled to an antenna socket module DTT. No hard disk to the program, but a 2 GB flash memory that acts as a cache.

The possible optimization of the system by regulation of write cycles remains hypothetical. The potential lifespan of the whole suffers accordingly.

Subscription customers for over a year are eligible for free exchange of their old equipment. Subscribers whose seniority does not exceed 12 months will be eligible to transition, for a contribution of 50 euros.

The routing protocol most common on the net broken by students at the Technion

Dima and Alex Kirshon Gonikman of the Technion Faculty of Computer Science have successfully hacked the routing protocol OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), the most common on the internet as part of a final project study led by Dr. Gabriel Raphael. They are the recipients of the prestigious award for Excellence in Amdocs computer.

In the field of computer networks, it is customary to divide and separate multiple platforms and autonomous systems, and connect them with what are called routers. For example a router will direct the request of a French web site to Israel. A request does not pass through a single router, but is routed through paths that traverse several routers before reaching their destination. To communicate, the routers that redirect the flow of information to their peers use language commonly known routing protocol. Among the different protocols, OSPF is the most widespread on the internet.
