Computers store long-term data in two places: their storage drives, and the read-only memory chips on the motherboards that store firmware. The RAM sticks are for the processor to store the data ...

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 age of quantum computers is drawing ever more near, and now, a team of researchers led by engineers at Caltech have developed a computer chip that puts us one step closer to that new era in ...

Learn why Computer Security Day matters and get simple steps to protect your devices, accounts, and privacy in 2025.

Inspired by the human brain, UC San Diego scientists have constructed a new kind of computer that stores information and processes it in the same place. This prototype “memcomputer” solves a problem ...

A full DNA computer is a step closer, thanks to a new technology that could store petabytes of data in DNA for thousands or even millions of years. The system can also process data, as demonstrated by ...

Working at a microscopic level, Caroline Ross actually creates and modifies MRAM, or magnetoresistive random-access memory. When we store our birthday photos and thesis papers on our PCs, our thought ...
