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 ...

Memory safety in C can be summed up in a few words: there isn’t any! C is the most popular programming language used to write applications for embedded systems, particularly microcontroller-based ...

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...

In modern CPU device operation, 80% to 90% of energy consumption and timing delays are caused by the movement of data between the CPU and off-chip memory. To alleviate this performance concern, ...
