For the last few years, the people in the know have been wondering about the memristor. The simplest explanation of what a memristor is comes from the name itself – it’s a memory resistor.

However, researchers at the University of Michigan are claiming the first memristor-based programmable computer that has the potential to make AI applications more efficient and faster.

Prof. Kim says, "In this study, we achieved SC on a high-density two-terminal memristor and implemented vector-matrix ...
