One of the most important parts of a processor is the buffer memory, also called the cache. What is it responsible for and how does it work?

How does computer memory work? To truly understand how computer memory works, we must first examine the basic building blocks that make it possible: transistors and logic gates.

A very common question I am asked is which is more important, the speed of the processor or the amount memory. This is a difficult question to answer and it would help if we had some understanding ...

Ever been curious how L1 and L2 cache work? We're glad you asked. Here, we deep dive into the structure and nature of one of computing's most fundamental designs and innovations.

UCSB's new general-purpose quantum computer has separate CPU, memory, and programming electronics.
