How does computer memory work? To truly understand how computer memory works, we must first examine the basic building blocks that make it possible: transistors and logic gates.

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 ...

Learn more about the different types of memory mechanisms your brain uses and which is the most important.

Memory types include sensory (brief perception storage), short-term (temporary holding of info), and long-term, which splits into explicit (conscious) and implicit (unconscious).

Implicit and explicit memory are both kinds of long-term memory, but what’s the difference, and why is each important? Experts explain.

Resistive random access memory (ReRAM), which is based on oxide materials, is gaining attention as a next-generation memory ...

A person’s memory is a sea of images and other sensory impressions, facts and meanings, echoes of past feelings, and ingrained codes for how to behave—a diverse well of information. Naturally ...

The mysteries of how memory works are explained in a new book that suggests anyone can boost their powers of recall -- and that losing your keys is normal.

New research has found similarities in how humans and artificial intelligence integrate two types of learning, offering new ...
