A hybrid computer uses rotating mechanical beams for memory and electrical contacts for logic, performing reprogrammable computation through physical motion in environments where conventional ...

Data prefetching has emerged as a critical approach to mitigate the performance bottlenecks imposed by memory access latencies in modern computer architectures. By predicting the data likely to be ...

A new technical paper titled “Hardware-software co-exploration with racetrack memory based in-memory computing for CNN inference in embedded systems” was published by researchers at National ...

SAN JOSE, Calif.--The ability to cram more data into less space on a memory chip or a hard drive has been the crucial force propelling consumer electronics companies to make ever smaller devices. It ...

How much energy is consumed each time we upload an image to social media, which relies on data centers and cloud storage? Data centers currently account for about one percent of global energy ...

Google researchers have revealed that memory and interconnect are the primary bottlenecks for LLM inference, not compute power, as memory bandwidth lags 4.7x behind.

In 1994, University of Virginia computer science professor emeritus William Wulf and his then-graduate student, Sally McKee, identified what would become a defining challenge in the field of computer ...

A change is coming to datacentre architectures. That is the likely result of the CXL – Compute Express Link – interconnect, which will allow memory to be pooled for use by compute nodes. It promises ...

If you've ever been computer shopping, you'll undoubtedly have heard the term RAM thrown around willy-nilly. You might know a few things about RAM, such as that it's one of the most important parts in ...
