A long-running problem in the computer world is that DRAM is the fastest memory available but also volatile, so it can't hold onto its data when power is shut off. This makes it useless for data ...

A research team has developed hardware and software technology that ensures both data and execution persistence. The Lightweight Persistence Centric System (LightPC) makes the systems resilient ...

Non-volatile memory (NVM) systems and architectures have emerged as pivotal components in modern computing, offering the combined benefits of data persistence and enhanced energy efficiency. With ...

Researchers have developed a technique that leverages hardware and software to improve file system security for next-generation memory technologies called non-volatile memories (NVMs). The new ...

RAM, i.e., “random access memory,” is a commonly interchanged term for “volatile memory,” i.e., memory that loses its stored data when power is removed. Yet RAM is not an acronym with which I'm ...

Non-volatile memories—which are able to retain information even when power is removed—are largely employed in computers, tablets, pen drives and many other electronic devices. Among the various ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. This is the third in a set of four blogs about projections for digital storage and memory for the following year that we have been ...

IBM Research has been working on new non-volatile magnetic memory for over two decades. Non-volatile memory is wonderful for retaining data without power, but it is extremely slow, and does not last ...

Researchers from Lancaster University have developed a new type of computer memory product that they say combines the best features of DRAM memory and SSD storage…. and then surpasses them. Like flash ...
