Concurrent data structures and memory management are critical components in the design of modern multi-core and parallel computing systems. These fields address the challenge of ensuring safe, ...

Until recently, an explanation of memory management would have amounted to a description of a computer’s virtual memory implementation. Now however, memory management encompasses organizing frequently ...

In the first installment of this series we had a brief look at the steps needed to get a bare-metal application running on an STM32 microcontroller. While this allowed us to quickly get to the juicy ...

Rust’s ownership and borrowing mechanisms guarantee memory safety at run time. Here’s how to use them in your programs. The Rust programming language shares many concepts with other languages intended ...

A UK chip startup, VyperCore, says it has come up with a memory management scheme that does a software layer end-around and delivers as much as a 10x throughput improvement for high performance, ...

This week, ZDNet's Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols asked Linus Torvalds and Greg Kroah-Hartman about the possibility of new Linux kernel code being written in Rust—a high performance but memory-safe ...
