In the eighties, computer processors became faster and faster, while memory access times stagnated and hindered additional performance increases. Something had to be done to speed up memory access and ...

The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...

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 ...

PrimoCache delivers noticeable speed improvements on systems with ample RAM and slower drives that frequently read and write data, while on high-end systems its main benefit is reducing wear and tear ...

Researchers from the Graz University of Technology have discovered a way to convert a limited heap vulnerability in the Linux kernel into a malicious memory writes capability to demonstrate novel ...
