In classical computer science information is stored in bits, in quantum computer science -- in quantum bits, i.e. qubits. Experiments now show that not only physics, but also chemistry is suitable for ...

Researchers have developed a new type of optical memory called a programmable photonic latch that is fast and scalable. This fundamental memory unit enables temporary data storage in optical ...

In a bid to create smaller, more powerful computers and smartphones, researchers at New York University have come up with a new digital data storage technique they've dubbed "racetrack memory." There ...

The performance of a business computer at everyday tasks largely depends on two factors: its processor speed and the amount of memory it has. The processor's speed comes from its clock, a timing ...

Quantum computing has come on in leaps and bounds in the last few years. Indeed, once the big technology companies like IBM, Microsoft, and Google started showing an interest, I kind of stopped ...

Despite delays by China to approve the sale of Toshiba’s memory unit by the end of March 2018, China indicated last week that it would not stand in the way of the Bain led purchase. On Thursday Bain ...

March 5 (Reuters) - Western Digital (WDC.O), opens new tab on Tuesday named chief executives for its soon-to-be separated flash memory and traditional hard-disk drive (HDD) businesses and said the ...

Faster, smaller, smarter and more energy-efficient chips for everything from consumer electronics to big data to brain-inspired computing could soon be on the way after engineers created the smallest ...

This new type of optical memory unit,called a programmable photonic latch, is fast and scalable. It could offer a high-speed silicon photonics solution for volatile memory. WASHINGTON — Researchers ...
