Dennard invented Dynamic Random Access Memory, or DRAM, the memory used in virtually all computers today. Dennard followed in the mid-1970s with a groundbreaking paper describing how to keep shrinking transistors to build smaller, faster and less expensive chips. For those achievements, Dennard, who celebrated his 51st year as an IBM employee this week, will receive a Medal of Honor from the Institute of Electrical Engineers next Thursday. http://www.itworld.com/hardware/69494/drams-inventor-76-still-going-strong-ibm#comments Hardware News DRAM IBM Thu, 18 Jun 2009 21:27:04 -0400 ITworld staff 69494 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/legal/69201/rambus-reaches-tentative-settlement-european-commission High-speed memory developer Rambus is close to settling a complaint brought against it by the European Commission in 2007, it said Friday. http://www.itworld.com/legal/69201/rambus-reaches-tentative-settlement-european-commission#comments Legal News DRAM memory patent Rambus Fri, 12 Jun 2009 09:23:00 -0400 ITworld staff 69201 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/legal/67971/us-ftc-drops-rambus-antitrust-case The FTC has officially dropped its antitrust case against memory maker Rambus, after losing a Supreme Court case in February. http://www.itworld.com/legal/67971/us-ftc-drops-rambus-antitrust-case#comments Government Legal News antitrust DRAM FTC memory Rambus Fri, 15 May 2009 10:38:54 -0400 ITworld staff 67971 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/business/67308/taiwans-big-five-dram-makers-post-massive-losses Taiwan's five largest DRAM makers reported massive losses in a slew of earnings reports filed late Thursday evening, raising questions about how much longer some of them can remain afloat without direct government aid. http://www.itworld.com/business/67308/taiwans-big-five-dram-makers-post-massive-losses#comments Business Hardware News DRAM financial results memory Fri, 01 May 2009 10:42:32 -0400 ITworld staff 67308 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/business/66990/dram-maker-elpida-makes-big-full-year-loss Japan's Elpida Memory made a massive loss in the year to March 31 due to falling DRAM prices, according to preliminary figures published Monday. http://www.itworld.com/business/66990/dram-maker-elpida-makes-big-full-year-loss#comments Business News DRAM financial results memory Mon, 27 Apr 2009 09:21:01 -0400 ITworld staff 66990 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/legal/64041/hynix-vows-fight-against-rambus Hynix Semiconductor said it plans to appeal a ruling that handed Rambus a wide victory in its attempts to collect patent royalties from DRAM makers. http://www.itworld.com/legal/64041/hynix-vows-fight-against-rambus#comments Legal News DRAM Hynix Semiconductor patent Rambus Wed, 11 Mar 2009 09:10:05 -0400 ITworld staff 64041 at http://www.itworld.com
