One of the greatest challenges facing the designers of many-core processors is resource contention. The chart below visually lays out the problem of resource contention, but for most of us the idea is ...

Magneto-resistive random access memory (MRAM) is a non-volatile memory technology that relies on the (relative) magnetization state of two ferromagnetic layers to store binary information. Throughout ...

Why it matters: A RAM drive is traditionally conceived as a block of volatile memory "formatted" to be used as a secondary storage disk drive. RAM disks are extremely fast compared to HDDs or even ...

What is the “Disk Cache”? The disk cache is used to store disk information in RAM. Access to RAM is faster than the hard disk, so the information will be available more rapidly. How to increase the ...

How lossless data compression can reduce memory and power requirements. How ZeroPoint’s compression technology differs from the competition. One can never have enough memory, and one way to get more ...
