At the 2015 SNIA Industry Summit in January, Jim Handy and I gave a joint talk on the future of memory technology and how microprocessors and memory/storage are coming together to provide faster ...

Modern computer-memory technologies come with a trade-off. There is speedy but short-term storage for on-the-fly processing — random-access memory, or RAM — and slow but enduring memory for data and ...

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 of ...

If your computer starts to slow down when you run a few programs at the same time or run a particularly demanding program, you can try adding more memory to improve your computer's performance. A ...

Connecting flash memory to a computer's PCI system offers some speed advantages over hard drives and conventional flash-memory drives. Here's a look at the idea. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from ...

Your computer has two basic kinds of memory: hard drive storage and random-access memory, and they perform separate functions. Although adding a second hard drive increases your PC's storage capacity, ...

A sheet of graphene sandwiched between electrolytes can host independently tunable proton and electron currents — setting the stage for a device that serves both computer-memory and logic functions.

Quantum computing holds the potential to be a game-changing future technology in fields ranging from chemistry to cryptography to finance to pharmaceuticals. Compared to conventional computers, ...
