本書從元宇宙的起源和現實應用場景出發，基於元宇宙的“BIGCHINA”技術框架，為讀者依次揭開元宇宙背後八大硬科技—區塊鏈(Blockchain)技術、交互(Interactivity)技術、通信技術(Communication Technology，5G、6G)、雲和邊緣計算(Cloud and Edge Computing)技術、高性能計算和量子計算(High-Performance Computing and Quantum Computing)技術、物聯網和機器人(IoT and Robotics)技術、網絡(Network)技術、人工智能(Artificial Intelligence)技術的神秘面紗。本書將上述八大支撐技術與元宇宙中的諸多實際和潛在應用相結合，生動地繪製出一幅元宇宙的“技術圖譜”，為想要瞭解元宇宙及其背後核心技術的讀者提供有趣的科普閱讀體驗。此外，本書在一定程度上突破了從單一技術視域分析元宇宙的局限，對讀者瞭解當前元宇宙技術整體發展現狀和未來趨勢有一定的借鑒意義。

Digital has already drastically changed our lives in areas from music, food, travel television and even social relationships. Health is also now experiencing a strong influence from the digital realm, which will change our way of thinking about healthcare and how we approach it. The recent past has already brought on changes to health that can be considered disruptive, and it will be even more so in the near future Yet, thanks to technology, disruption will also have a very positive face, as health services will also become more humane, reintroducing a level of empathy that almost disappeared from the field of medicine in the last century. In the area of devices we have gone from heavy and very expensive laptops with computing capabilities that would be considered ridiculous by today's standards, to extremely powerful handheld computers, smartphones, tablets, wearable devices... and this process is continuing with the ever increasing levels of miniaturization and affordability. We are

Because of their widespread use in mainframes, PCs, and mobile audio and video devices, DRAMs are being manufactured in ever increasing volume, both in stand-alone and in embedded form as part of a system on chip. Due to the optimum design of their components-access transistor, storage capacitor, and peripherals-DRAMs are the cheapest and densest semiconductor memory currently available. As a result, most of DRAM structure research and development focuses on the technology used for its constituent components and their interconnections.However, only a few books are available on semiconductor memories in general and fewer on DRAMs. Dynamic RAM: Technology Advancements provides a holistic view of the DRAM technology with a systematic description of the advancements in the field since the 1970s, and an analysis of future challenges. Topics Include:DRAM cells of all types, including planar, three-dimensional (3-D) trench or stacked, COB or CUB, vertical, and mechanically robust cells using
