NVMs: In-Memory Fine-Grained Integrity Verification Technique (Intel Labs, IISc)


A new technical paper titled "iMIV: in-Memory Integrity Verification for NVM" was published by researchers at Intel Labs and Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru. Abstract "Non-volatile Memory (NVM) could bridge the gap between memory and storage. However, NVMs are susceptible to data remanence attacks. Thus, multiple security metadata must persist along with the data to protect th... » read more

Research Bits: July 8


2D TFETS for neuromorphic computing Researchers from the University of California Santa Barbara and Intel Labs used 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based tunnel-field-effect transistors (TFETs) in a neuromorphic computing platform, bringing the energy requirements to within two orders of magnitude (about 100 times) the amount used by the human brain. The 2D TFETs have lower off-sta... » read more
