Message-ID: <2847@mtecv2.mty.itesm.mx> Date: 1 Feb 91 18:24:44 GMT Followup-To: sci.electronics Organization: ITESM. Campus Monterrey Lines: 19 I'm working in a research about how to select different types of memory in a computer system (micros, minis and mainframes). I'd like to know the opinions from all of you, about the considerations that are necessary to make in order to select the right memory type in a computer. (i.e.) Access time, dynamic or static?, price, size, capacity (bytes), word length, etc. I'd also like to know about the different types of memory expansion cards, virtual memory software, memory expansion software that are available. Thank's in advance for your help. -- ***** Greetings from Mexico! ***** Juan Gabriel Ruiz Pinto Internet: Ing. Sistemas Electronicos jgabriel@mtecv2.mty.itesm.mx I.T.E.S.M. Campus Monterrey
