Had my second exam today: Artificial Intelligence. Fortunately the question paper wasn't as tough as the previous ones, so it went well. After a sleepless night and lots of coffee I'm happy that it went well. Next one, Analysis and Design of algorithms, is on Friday.
Coming to other things RSA-640 has been factored. Now only 6 are left in the factoring challenge.
Well, according to RSA's estimates of today's machines, to factor a 1620 Bit number would require 1.6 x 1015 Pentium class machines, each having 120 Tb of RAM. So, I guess RSA-2048 is a long way away.
I will go catch up on some sleep.
