"Memory for Telecommunications, the Backbone
of the Cloud"
JEDEC Server Memory Forum, November 2011
JEDEC standards are crafted to meet the demands for high volume
applications such as personal computers, applications servers, and so
forth, but how well do they meet the needs of niche markets such as
telecommunications? Innovation is sometimes needed to apply the
mass market devices to smaller markets. |
"Load Reduction Memory
Module"
The DRAM industry
is headed down a common path to produce high capacity memory modules to
replace the ill-fated Fully Buffered DIMMs. Will the LR-DIMM face
the same fate as FB-DIMM did? Has the industry learned its lesson? |

"E
Pluribus Unum -- The Evolution of the Personal Computer's Architecture"
IEEE Computer Society, October 2011
How did personal computers end up
with 300W power supplies and noisy fans that kept these boxes locked in
the den? Why did the PC lose out to gaming machines, DVRs, and
tablets? Now the buzz is The Cloud and elimination of personal
storage, much like the old mainframe days, but will the trend really
continue?
