Introduction to new memory paradigms: memristive phenomena and neuromorphic applications
Abstract
This article provides a brief introduction to the Faraday Discussion “New memory paradigms: memristive phenomena and neuromorphic applications” held in Aachen, Germany, 15–17 October 2018. It will cover basic definitions of memristive switching elements, their main switching modes, and their most important performance parameters as well as applications in neuromorphic computing.
