3-D chip stacks to arrive by end of 2008
eetimes.com — Microprocessors will soon start having memory chips stacked on top of them 3D-style, according to this story in a trade journal. A 3D memory port goes right on top of the processor chip, which is pretty hot, but is also pretty cool,since heat build up is said to be minimal. According to the article 3D processors will be available by the end of 2008 (Submitted by mark076h) More...

'Missing link' memristor created: Rewrite the textbooks?
eetimes.com — "The memristor is our salvation, because it works better and better as you make it smaller and smaller," said Chua. "The era of nanoscale electronics will be enabled by the memristor. This is not just an invention, it is a basic scientific discovery. It has always been there--we just had to face these nanoscale problems to realize its importance." (Submitted by vroom101) More...
