Put in perspective, all chips are vulnerable to [getkc id="253" kc_name="side channel attacks"], hacking of memory—a risk that increases... » read more

The Rise Of Dynamic Networks
By Ernest Worthman - 08 Oct, 2015 - Comments: 0

The Internet of the future, and particularly the [getkc id="260" comment="Internet of Everything"], will be interlaced with millions if not billions of intelligent, dynamic, self-organizing networks. These networks will be full of elements that are capable of autonomic self-registration across these multitudes of networks. It is one thing to put up a security perimeter when you know who the... » read more

Which Memory Type Should You Use?
By Loren Shalinsky - 10 Sep, 2015 - Comments: 1

I continue to get besieged by statements in which memory “latency” and “bandwidth” get misused. As I mentioned in my last blog, latency is defined as how long the CPU needs to wait before the first data is available, while bandwidth is how fast additional data can be “streamed” after the first data point has arrived. Bandwidth becomes a bigger factor in performance when data is stor... » read more
