The reason they have that name is that magnetic core memory was the primary storage for computers back in the old days and many of us still refer to a computer’s main memory as “core.” ...

In computer memory applications, the forward direction is 0 and the ... Core loss is the amount of power lost while the flux field passes through the magnetic core. Possible causes include hysteresis ...

He refined magnetic core memory in 1949, and it would eventually be used throughout the computer industry. Around 1949, the Navy was losing interest in Whirlwind and considered scrapping it.

The computer in question is a 1-address machine with magnetic core memory which performs the basic operations of addition, comparison, transfer from arithmetic unit to memory, etc., at the rate of one ...

This is a core memory unit from an IBM 9020 computer. It stored data in a three-dimensional array of donut-shaped "cores" of magnetic material. Each core stored a binary number one or zero, depending ...

Another design clearly influenced by drum memory was the homemade computer from the book ... the donut (or core) could have a clockwise magnetic field or a counterclockwise field.

This is a core memory module, unflown, from a Launch Vehicle Digital Computer, part of the guidance system for ... The memory module consisted of small doughnut-shaped "cores" of magnetic material.

He published a description of magnetic recording in Electrical World magazine in 1888. In this article, Smith described the basic theory of all magnetic sound recording.

But IBM had to be practically forced by the Air Force’s own engineers to employ the new memory, which would subsequently prove key to IBM’s success in the commercial computer business.

This way you ensure your data is completely safe should anything go wrong with your computer ... on an Intel Core i7-5820K/X99 motherboard with 64GB of Kingston DDR4 memory running Windows ...
