Researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a new AI-assisted tool that helps computer architects boost processor performance by improving memory management. The tool, called ...

In the early days of computing, everything ran quite a bit slower than what we see today. This was not only because the computers' central processing units – CPUs – were slow, but also because ...

Intel released a new CPU model this week, the Intel Core i9 7900X, which is the latest model to feature a new cache architecture that hardware experts believe it will make exploitation of side-channel ...

One of the greatest challenges facing the designers of many-core processors is resource contention. The chart below visually lays out the problem of resource contention, but for most of us the idea is ...

Large-scale applications, such as generative AI, recommendation systems, big data, and HPC systems, require large-capacity ...

Editor’s Note: Demand for increasing functionality and performance in systems designs continues to drive the need for more memory even as hardware engineers balance the dynamics of system capability, ...

Editor's Note: Embedded Systems Architecture, 2nd Edition, is a practical and technical guide to understanding the components that make up an embedded system’s architecture. Offering detailed ...

There are three levels of Processor Cache viz; L1, L2, and L3. The more L2 and L3 cache your system has, the faster the data will be fetched, the faster the program will be executed, and the more ...

Virtual memory is a valuable concept in computer architecture that allows you to run large, sophisticated programs on a computer even if it has a relatively small amount of RAM. A computer with ...
