Measurements of an off-the-shelf DRAM chip confirm that different cells retain information for different amounts of time. This result extends to DRAM rows, or pages (retention tim...
Many years of CMOS technology scaling have resulted in increased power densities and higher core temperatures. Power and temperature concerns are now considered to be a primary cha...
