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 ...

Memory management is the process by which a computer system allocates a limited amount of physical memory among the various processes that need it - such as operating system or application calls ...

An excerpt from Linux Programming by Example: The Fundamentals explaining memory management and the Linux/Unix address space.

Commonly, a system has a single area of memory with a starting address of zero. This is not a firm rule, as the memory architecture could be set up such that the address space starts at some other ...

A UK chip startup, VyperCore, says it has come up with a memory management scheme that does a software layer end-around and delivers as much as a 10x - Read more from Inside HPC & AI News.

The paper, entitled ‘Novel memory-efficient computer architecture integration in RISC-V with CXL’ reported that this demonstration device had achieved an acceleration factor of 16 to 128 times ...

Apple's Unified Memory Architecture first brought changes to the Mac with Apple Silicon M1 chips. There are clear architectural benefits for the hardware — and it is both good and bad for ...

MemVerge’s software defined memory management product transparently enables memory tiering for memory-intensive applications taking advantage of CXL protocol for the memory innovation needed for ...

To handle such conflicting memory capacity and bandwidth demands in a cost-effective way, this study investigates the potential of heterogeneous memory systems, proposing H2M2. It uses an asymmetric ...
