Abstract: The aim of the present invention consists of reducing the switching time from one reception channel to another. In fact, this reduction will be particularly discernable since the number of different rights stored in a security module of a multimedia unit or decoder is high. When a user selects a service among those proposed by an electronic programs guide, an access control module explores a stored service information table in order to extract an access condition associated to the service. This access condition allows determining an index in a rights table stored in the access control module of a right that fulfills the access condition. The access control module transmits to the security module the index thus determined alone or accompanied by a control message. This index allows the security module to find quickly the right that it compares afterwards with the access condition included in the control message after decryption of the latter.

Abstract: This invention concerns a security module deactivation and reactivation method particularly intended for access control of conditional access data. These security modules include a plurality of registers (R1, R2, R3, Rn) containing values. The method includes the step of sending at least one management message (RUN-EMM) containing an executable code, this executable code being loaded into a memory of the security module and then executed. The execution of this code in particular can carry out the combination and/or the enciphering of the values of the registers, or render these values illegible. This method also allows the reactivation of the security modules that have been deactivated previously. In this case, the method includes the step of sending another message containing an executable code (RUN-EMM?1) for the reactivation of the modules, this executable code having an inverted function to that of the executable code used for the deactivation of the security modules.

Abstract: System for protection against high waters is constructed from assembled protective walls, fixed on the ground/dam and interconnected between them selves, each to another. Each protective wall 1 contains, in its body, a first edge 1.1 and second edge 1.2, that are positioned under right angles, lying from the both sides of the guiding plates 2. The guiding plates 2 stands forward, over the body, with the edge 1.1, whereby it forms first gap S1 in the U-shape in the form of slot, and two other guiding plates 2, formed the second edge 1.2 that creates second gap S2 in the form of slot. The third edge 1.3 is extended from the upper side, while the fourth edge 1.4 is parallel with the second edge 1.2 while in the gap S2, between guiding plates 2, the protective wall is attached as a slider. The guiding plates 2 are arranged on the first edge 1.1, appropriately distanced from the fourth edge 1.

Abstract: The mobile protection against high waters that is contained from transportable structural elements that are water proof and that can be filled or emptied with water where the structural elements can be placed aside each to other and each over other, taking the shape of rectangular vessels (1) in case of linear flow of the protective wall against high waters and the shape of key segments (2) when the flow is curved. The hook hanger (9) represents easy up cap with opposite hooks (20) to the structural elements that lay across it. The easy up caps at the segments (2) have additional prolongation of the basic plate (19) because of the assurance of the segments (2) with the vessels (1) throughout the opposite hooks (20). The vertical jacket element (8) is in shape of half-profile, and it is unsolvable adhered over the layer of caouchouc. The jacket element (10) from the segment (2) has a profile in shape of mushroom. The jaws (17) are made of PE-HD-plate with inserted steel tops.
