  2. Minecraft modding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minecraft_modding

    A Minecraft mod is a mod that changes aspects of the sandbox game Minecraft. Minecraft mods can add additional content to the game, make tweaks to specific features, and optimize performance. Thousands of mods for the game have been created, with some mods even generating an income for their authors.

  3. List of in-memory databases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_in-memory_databases

    IWA supports Dynamic In-memory (in-memory columnar processing) Parallel Vector Processing, Actionable Compression, and Data Skipping technologies, collectively called "Blink Technology" by IBM (the same technology underlying IBM BLU Acceleration). The Informix Advanced Enterprise and Advanced Workgroup Editions include IWA. Released: March 2011.

  4. Memory overcommitment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_overcommitment

    Memory overcommitment is a concept in computing that covers the assignment of more memory to virtual computing devices (or processes) than the physical machine they are hosted, or running on, actually has.

  5. Fabric computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fabric_computing

    The fundamental components of fabrics are "nodes" (processor(s), memory, and/or peripherals) and "links" (functional connections between nodes). [2] While the term "fabric" has also been used in association with storage area networks and with switched fabric networking , the introduction of compute resources provides a complete "unified ...

  6. Virtual memory compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory_compression

    By reducing the I/O activity caused by paging requests, virtual memory compression can produce overall performance improvements. The degree of performance improvement depends on a variety of factors, including the availability of any compression co-processors, spare bandwidth on the CPU, speed of the I/O channel, speed of the physical memory, and the compressibility of the physical memory ...

  7. Memory access pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_access_pattern

    In computing, a memory access pattern or IO access pattern is the pattern with which a system or program reads and writes memory on secondary storage.These patterns differ in the level of locality of reference and drastically affect cache performance, [1] and also have implications for the approach to parallelism [2] [3] and distribution of workload in shared memory systems. [4]

  8. Memory augmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_augmentation

    Memory augmentation is the process by which one's ability to retain information is increased. [1] The retrieval of memory has been theorized to be untrustworthy, and it can be partially inaccurate and not totally reliable (see more: Recovered memory.) Ubiquitous Memory Systems have been invented in order to reduce these memory mistakes. [2]

  9. Interleaved memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interleaved_memory

    In computing, interleaved memory is a design which compensates for the relatively slow speed of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) or core memory, by spreading memory addresses evenly across memory banks. That way, contiguous memory reads and writes use each memory bank in turn, resulting in higher memory throughput due to reduced waiting for ...
