During the 1970s many different computer architectures were being developed, many of them focused on making computer systems easier and more effective to use. The Flex Machine developed at the UK ...

Data prefetching has emerged as a critical approach to mitigate the performance bottlenecks imposed by memory access latencies in modern computer architectures. By predicting the data likely to be ...

Al and I were talking about the IBM 9020 FAA Air Traffic Control computer system on the podcast. It’s a strange machine, made up of a bunch of IBM System 360 mainframes connected together to a common ...

A technical paper titled “RV-CURE: A RISC-V Capability Architecture for Full Memory Safety” was published by researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology and Arm Research. “Despite decades of ...

AMD’s Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) hardware framework provides Heterogeneous Uniform Memory Access (hUMA) to CPUs and GPUs (Fig. 1). It radically changes the way CPUs and GPUs will interact ...

Quantinuum recently released its second-generation quantum computer, the System Model H2 with an advanced ion trap in the shape of an oval racetrack. Like Quantinuum’s earlier quantum computer ...

This guide introduces the Memory System Resource Partitioning and Monitoring (MPAM), an optional addition to the Arm architecture to support memory system partitioning. MPAM is documented in the ...

Computer engineering is a growing field that integrates both the software and hardware sides of computer systems. Computer engineering at Michigan Tech bridges the gap, setting you up for a wide range ...
