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 ...

How does memory work? And how does… un-memory work? How does memory work? And how does… un-memory work? Our brain does a lot of remembering and forgetting every day, so you should probably make room ...

RAM, or Random Access Memory, is what your computer uses to multi-task. Most devices with any kind of computer inside, whether it’s a PC, laptop, smartphone, or game console, will require a minimum ...

Cambridge scientists have developed a new prototype for computer memory that could make for faster chips that could hold up to 100 times more data. The system is made up of barium bridges between ...

A computer that relies on fungal mycelium to store information could one day be a low-cost alternative to the current generation of memory hardware. Using plain old shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula ...

Apple's UMA design -- a single, fixed pool of RAM integrated into the die with the CPU, GPU and NPU -- makes Mac and MacBook configuration choices a little different than it used to be.

Computer memory could one day withstand the blazing temperatures in fusion reactors, jet engines, geothermal wells and sweltering planets using a new solid-state memory device developed by a team of ...
