Use an AM radio to listen to the signal emitted from a video monitor. A simple of example. The right signal processing algorithms can recover the contents displayed on the video monitor from the AM signal that the monitor broadcasts. van Eck Freaking by Wim van Eck.
Cyclone A "dialect" of C that strives to prevent unsafe programming. Cyclone is derived from C99. Additional keywords have been added (abstract, catch, codegen, cut, fallthru, fill, let, malloc, namespace, new, NULL(!?), region_t, regions, rmalloc, rnew, splice, throw, try, tunion, using, and xtunion). Cyclone is joint project of AT&T Labs Research and Greg Morrisett's group at Cornell University.

The Internet is believed to be resistant to attacks through being widely interconnected. Traditionally, we speak of the original funding for the ARPAnet being the result of the loss of a microwave tower in Utah and the Pentagon's realization of how brittle its communication systems were. One goal of the ARPAnet was to change that be creating a robust network. Unfortunately, the ARPAnet's successor network, the Internet, may be brittle as well. Albert-Laszlo Brarbasi's, of the Self-Organized Networks group of the Physics department of the University of Notre Dame, research indicates that a few nodes in the Internet are critical to its operation. His paper Attack and error tolerance in complex networks was published in the 27th July 2000 issue of Nature. A review of the recent advances in our understanding of complex networks is contained in Statistical mechanics of complex networks.
