UrduResearchers have found two novel types of attacks that target the conditional branch predictor found in high-end Intel processors, which could be exploited to compromise billions of processors currently in use. The multi-university and industry research team led by computer scientists at University of California San Diego will present their work at the 2024 ACM ASPLOS Conference that begins tomorrow.

Microwave-Assisted Recording Technology Promises High-Density Hard Disk Performance
Researchers have studied the operation of a small device fabricated in the write gap of a hard disk drive’s write head to extend its recording density. The device is based on microwave-assisted magnetic recording. This technology, reported in Journal of Applied Physics, uses a spin-torque oscillator, which causes the magnetic particles of the recording medium to wobble. This makes them much easier to flip over when the write head applies a recording magnetic field in the writing process.
Material found in house paint may spur technology revolution
The development of a new method to make non-volatile computer memory may have unlocked a problem that has been holding back machine learning and has the potential to revolutionize technologies like voice recognition, image processing and autonomous driving.
