All of the data structures we’ll look at in this series are aggregates. Containers. Anything from which data items are stored and retrieved could be considered a data structure.

Researchers in New York developed a virtual reality maze for mice in an attempt to demystify a question that’s been plaguing neuroscientists for decades: How are long-term memories stored?

Neuroscientists from Northwestern University teamed up with clinicians from the University of Chicago Epilepsy Center to study the brain electrical activity in five of the center’s patients in ...

Persistent memory, offering non-volatility with near-DRAM speeds, has enabled the development of PM-aware data structures that skilfully balance the demands of performance, reliability, and ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers from Japan have ...

To optimize the vast amounts of data stored on high-performance computers like ORNL's Frontier, the world's first exascale supercomputer, scientists need ways to structure memory systems based on ...

Why is it easier to remember a tune than your bank-account password? Henry L. Roediger III, professor of psychology at the Memory Lab at Washington University in St. Louis, explains how songs get ...
