THE STARGATE OMNIPEDIA
CORRELATIVE UPDATES
A subroutine in the Stargate system which is believed to allow the gate network to compensate for stellar drift over millions of years. The Stargates' dial-home devices periodically dial one another automatically and transmit updates regarding Stargate coordinates and system modifications.
The Goa'uld System Lord Baal used this to his advantage, spreading a modified version of Jay Felger's "Avenger" computer virus through the entire Stargate network, leaving all gates inoperative. Earth scientists have theorized that these updates occur only once every several hundred years, but the updates triggered by the Avenger computer virus cast doubt on this theory.
KEY EPISODE(S) -
Avenger 2.0 - Carter speculates the Stargate network undergoes automatic correlative updates to compensate for stellar drifting and general program updates. Baal uses the system to spread a modified computer virus and shut down the gate network.
