This volume describes computing innovation using non-volatile memory for a sustainable world. The text presents methods of design and implementation for non-volatile memory, allowing devices to be turned off normally when not in use, yet operate with full performance when needed.

This book describes computing innovation, using non-volatile memory for a sustainable world. It appeals to both computing engineers and device engineers by describing a new means of lower power computing innovation, without sacrificing performance over conventional low-voltage operation. Readers will be introduced to methods of design and implementation for non-volatile memory which allow computing equipment to be turned off normally when not in use and to be turned on instantly to operate with full performance when needed.

Provides a comprehensive introduction to current low-power innovation, low-voltage technology and non-volatile memory technology Describes a new form of low-power computing innovation, known as normally-off/instant-on computing, which achieves drastic power reduction without sacrificing performance Appeals to computing engineers with novel content about non-volatile memory and device engineers with content about computing innovation Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
