Abstract
The innovations in computing architecture based on non-volatile RAMs are now advancing to enable further power reductions in addition to conventionally developed low-voltage technology. The main goal is to design computing equipment that quickly turns off when not in use and that stays in the turned-off state as long as possible but that can be turned on instantly, running with full performance capabilities, when needed. This is consistent with what we prefer to do in our daily lives, where there is an increasing interest in a rich sustainable world. What is needed is a combination or harmonization of power control and information communication technologies. The key to achieving this is ensuring that any internal state of computation is memorized before the power is turned off without consuming power.
