  2. Memory management (operating systems) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_management...

    In operating systems, memory management is the function responsible for managing the computer's primary memory. [1]: 105–208 The memory management function keeps track of the status of each memory location, either allocated or free.

  3. Static random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_random-access_memory

    Static random-access memory (static RAM or SRAM) is a type of random-access memory (RAM) that uses latching circuitry (flip-flop) to store each bit. SRAM is volatile memory ; data is lost when power is removed.

  4. Memory cell (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_cell_(computing)

    Modern random-access memory (RAM) uses MOS field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) as flip-flops, along with MOS capacitors for certain types of RAM. The SRAM memory cell is a type of flip-flop circuit, typically implemented using MOSFETs. These require very low power to maintain the stored value when not being accessed.

    Body memory, the hypothesis that (traumatic) memories can be stored in individual cells outside the brain; Neuronal memory allocation, the storage of memories in the brain at the cellular level

  6. Magnetoresistive RAM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetoresistive_RAM

    The main determinant of a memory system's cost is the density of the components used to make it up. Smaller components, and fewer of them, mean that more "cells" can be packed onto a single chip, which in turn means more can be produced at once from a single silicon wafer.

  7. Random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random-access_memory

    Solid-state hard drives have continued to increase in speed, from ~400 Mbit/s via SATA3 in 2012 up to ~7 GB/s via NVMe/PCIe in 2024, closing the gap between RAM and hard disk speeds, although RAM continues to be an order of magnitude faster, with single-lane DDR5 8000MHz capable of 128 GB/s, and modern GDDR even faster.

  8. Multi-channel memory architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-channel_memory...

    In the fields of digital electronics and computer hardware, multi-channel memory architecture is a technology that increases the data transfer rate between the DRAM memory and the memory controller by adding more channels of communication between them.
