Why Mobile World Congress is the new Consumer Electronics Show

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/mobile-world-congress-new-consumer-electronics-show/

Mobile World Congress (MWC), originally known as the GSM World Congress when it held its inaugural event in Cannes back in 1987, is the preeminent “everything mobile” conference featuring prominent mobile operators, device manufacturers, technology providers, vendors, and content owners from across the world. Now based in the Fira Gran Via in Barcelona, it is […]

Latency and high compute costs challenge blockchain

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/latency-high-compute-costs-challenge-blockchain/

Latency, compute costs and storage Andy Vitus, a partner at Scale Venture Partners, has written a TechCrunch article that explores the future of blockchain and distributed apps. As Vitus observes, the industry still has a “long way to go” before the technology is ready for major, real world applications. “To get there, creative and enterprising […]

Rise of the machines: The future of AI

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/rise-of-the-machines-the-future-of-ai/

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is slowly, but surely, becoming less science fiction and more science fact. Already, there are applications of AI in fields such as Waymo’s self-driving cars, to Ant Financial’s photo-recognition platforms for insurance claims, to Huawei’s AI-equipped Kirin 970 chip which powers its Mate 10 phones. Open source software packages exist that can […]

Beyond pixels and shaders: Non-graphical uses for GDDR6

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/beyond-pixels-shaders-non-graphical-uses-gddr6/

Graphics Double Data Rate (GDDR) memory is a type of synchronous graphics random-access memory (SGRAM) with a high-speed interface. First available in 2007, the previous generation of GDDR, GDDR5, has evolved well beyond its expected lifecycle to meet the needs of the industry. Nevertheless, GDDR5 has reached its apex, and a successor, GDDR6, was published […]

Data buffering gains ground across multiple verticals

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/data-buffering-gains-ground-across-multiple-verticals/

Earlier this month, Semiconductor Engineering’s Ann Steffora Mutschler penned an article that takes a closer look at how buffering is gaining ground as a way to speed up the processing of increasingly large quantities of data. In simple terms, says Mutschler, a data buffer is an area of physical memory storage that temporarily stores data while it is […]

Going beyond GPUs with GDDR6

https://www.rambus.com/blogs/going-beyond-gpus-gddr6/

The origins of GDDR The origins of modern graphics double data rate (GDDR) memory can be traced back to GDDR3 SDRAM. Designed by ATI Technologies, GDDR3 made its first appearance in nVidia’s GeForce FX 5700 Ultra card which debuted in 2004. Offering reduced latency and high bandwidth for GPUs, GDDR3 was followed by GDDR4, GDDR5, […]
