A new high-speed, high-capacity computer memory technology could make rebooting your computer a thing of the past, and may allow PC users to transfer and download large files - such as digital movies - in a few seconds, rather than hours. UH researchers developed and patented the memory technology, and announced that Sharp Corp. has exclusively licensed the technology. Alex Ignatiev, one of the developers of the new technology, is director of the Texas Center for Superconductivity and Advanced Materials and a professor of physics, chemistry, and electrical and computer engineering at UH.
