Nano Nanu Nano scale memory devices
Nano Nanu In the world of computers things just keep getting smaller. Here's an interesting article on a new kind of molecular non-volatile memory being developed by HP. Wouldn't it be nice if you could switch your computer off and back on again without losing anything or having to go through a lengthy boot sequence? - Bob http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/2248288.stm | motters 136 posts.

Quantum bits I remember reading an article about cpu's and memory based on quantum mechanics a couple of weeks ago. Can't remember where, but it was quite interesting. The basic premise was that quantum machinary is considerably smaller and faster with the added benefit that quantum bits have more than the two states (i.e. not just on/off) which allows for much more powerful programming.

Do u know? Do u know, as of now, we can't have perfect copy-paste in quantum computers? Welcome to the world of "entanglement"! | Rinku Dewri 17 posts. Thursday 12 September, 21:10 Reply
Quantum shift Entanglement is an interesting quantum phenominum, but whether it could actually be used for practical applications I think is a bit of an unknown. Quantum computers are in their infancy at the moment. My suspicion is that it may turn out to be perfectly possible to build a quantum computer, but that it may not be cost effective for the mass market. Quantum computers may require exotic materials, or that the components be kept at particular temperatures. - Bob | motters 136 posts. Saturday 14 September, 19:02 Reply
