Intel researches how to wed memory chips and processor cores, yielding impressive gains in speed and efficiency.

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 ...

Your computer's central processing unit is the "brain" that controls all operations inside the machine. The computer's random access memory helps the CPU keep things moving smoothly and quickly. A ...

With the particular needs of scientists and engineers in mind, researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest ...

In a single memory access, the Automata Processor is able to execute nearly 50,000 independent comparison operations. Furthermore, the results from these operations are automatically delivered to the ...

Processor Speed Vs. Memory. The performance of a business computer at everyday tasks largely depends on two factors: its processor speed and the amount of memory it has.

UCSB's new general-purpose quantum computer has separate CPU, memory, and programming electronics.

Such devices are likely to complement rather than replace today’s Von Neumann computer architecture when they are introduced several years from now. Technologies developed for non-volatile ...

Processors include a small amount of "cache memory," which reduces the number of times the processor has to fetch data from main memory, but Venray goes further.
