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 ...
MIT researchers developed Attention Matching, a KV cache compaction technique that compresses LLM memory by 50x in seconds — ...
Nvidia's KV Cache Transform Coding (KVTC) compresses LLM key-value cache by 20x without model changes, cutting GPU memory ...
The memory hierarchy (including caches and main memory) can consume as much as 50% of an embedded system power. This power is very application dependent, and tuning caches for a given application is a ...
Though computers store all data to be manipulated off-chip in main memory (aka RAM), data required regularly by the processor is also temporarily stored in a die-stacked DRAM (dynamic random access ...
Developers of safety-critical software can take advantage of RTOS features like cache partitioning and slack scheduling to reduce worst-case execution time for critical tasks and boost overall CPU ...
This sponsored post from Intel explores ways to find and eliminate memory bottlenecks that could be limiting your applications’ performance. Often, it’s not enough to parallelize and vectorize an ...
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 ...
Flash memory manufacturer, SanDisk, announced that it had acquired FlashSoft, a provider of enterprise caching software. The company also announced that it has entered into a worldwide, exclusive ...
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 ...
