Herzlia, Israel, July 26, 2011 – Flash Networks, a leading global provider of intelligent mobile Internet solutions, announced today that it has successfully completed interoperability testing of its Harmony Mobile Internet Services Gateway with the Alcatel-Lucent 5780 Dynamic Services Controller (DSC), a 3GPP policy charging and rules function (PCRF) platform.

Mobile data and video optimization based on subscriber profiles, service plans, and cell congestion
