    Reliability of Memory Memory refers to the processes that are used to acquire‚ store‚ retain and later retrieve information in our brains.

    Nongenetic Memory

    • 5 Pages

    There are at least two ways by which birth is related to memory (or ‘Collective Memory’ to be more precise); the first is the Jungian ‘Collective Unconscious’ transmitted hereditarily and has been alternatively called ‘genetic memory’ (Treffert) while the second are Dawkins’ memes transmitted culturally. Much scholarship has been done on the first and for our present purposes it should suffice to say that “the contents of the collective unconscious have never been in consciousness‚ and therefore

    “Every man’s memory is his private literature.” As illustrated in this quote from Huxley‚ individual memory can narrate a story that differs from documented events; it is through a combination of the two that we uncover a more reliable account.

    Memory Dependencies

    • 3 Pages

    1. When predicting memory dependencies‚ what is the cost of "over predicting" (falsely predicting dependence)? What is the cost of "under predicting" (failing to predict an actual dependence)? Ans : While predicting memory dependencies‚ the cost of "over predicting" (falsely predicting a dependence) will be a delay in loading an instruction. Over predicting might create a false dependency on the last store instruction and thus generating confusion with the scheduler. The cost of "under predicting"
