The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...
Magneto-resistive random access memory (MRAM) is a non-volatile memory technology that relies on the (relative) magnetization state of two ferromagnetic layers to store binary information. Throughout ...
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 lossless data compression can reduce memory and power requirements. How ZeroPoint’s compression technology differs from the competition. One can never have enough memory, and one way to get more ...
A technical paper titled “HMComp: Extending Near-Memory Capacity using Compression in Hybrid Memory” was published by researchers at Chalmers University of Technology and ZeroPoint Technologies.
Exponential increases in data and demand for improved performance to process that data has spawned a variety of new approaches to processor design and packaging, but it also is driving big changes on ...
AMD's 7800X3D and 7950X3D CPUs reign supreme in the gaming realm, not solely due to their core count or clock speeds, but primarily owing to their abundant cache. CPU cache refers to a small yet ...
Gain insight into the CXL specification. Learn how CXL supports dynamic multiplexing between a rich set of protocols that includes I/O (CLX.io, based on PCIe), caching (CXL.cache), and memory (CXL.mem ...
This Application Note explores the implications associated with performing Direct Memory Access (DMA) operations on an ARM multi-core system such as the ARM11 MPCore and Cortex-A9 MPCore. The target ...
