AFRL, AI or Neural/Synapse Processing

May 26, 2021  |  Author : admin_mirabilis

Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the ability of machines to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence – for example, recognizing patterns, learning from experience, drawing conclusions, making predictions, or taking action – whether digitally or as the smart software behind autonomous physical systems. The Air Force Research Laboratory, in partnership with IBM, unveiled the world’s largest  neuromorphic digital synaptic […]

INTEL’s latest H20 Optane memory

May 20, 2021  |  Author : admin_mirabilis

INTEL has a new consumer-targeted storage product, called Optane H20, as in H twenty, not water. The new device is an M.2 2280 format drive, using QLC (Quad Level Cell) NAND storage running  behind an Optane cache layer. This isn’t INTEL’s first try at an Optane-backed hybrid SSD—the first, 2019’s Optane H10, made its way into a few consumer laptops […]

IBM New Memory Class, potential for Neural Processing

May 18, 2021  |  Author : admin_mirabilis

IBM Research has been working on new non-volatile magnetic memory for over two decades. Non-volatile memory is wonderful for retaining data without power, but it is extremely slow, and does not last forever. Primary computer memory (Dynamic Random Access Memory, or DRAM) is fast but volatile (thats the D part), and on-processor chip memory (Static Random Access Memory, or SRAM) […]
