Farrand, Hussain, and Hennessy ( 2002 ) found that spider diagrams ( similar to concept maps ) had limited, but significant, impact on memory recall in undergraduate students ( a 10 % increase over baseline for a 600-word text only ) as compared to preferred study methods ( a 6 % increase over baseline ).

Later Jung would emphasise the importance of the persistence of memory and ego in psychological study of reincarnation ; " This concept of rebirth necessarily implies the continuity of personality ... ( that ) one is able, at least potentially, to remember that one has lived through previous existences, and that these existences were one's own ...".

Memory virtualization is a generalization of the concept of virtual memory.

Assistive Technology for Cognition ( ATC ) is the use of technology ( usually high tech ) to augment and assistive cognitive processes such as attention, memory, self-regulation, navigation, emotion recognition and management, planning, and sequencing activity.

Systematic reviews of the field have found that the number of ATC are growing rapidly, but have focused on memory and planning, that there is emerging evidence for efficacy, that a lot of scope exists to develop new ATC.

More memory was added, as was the circuitry for the many sounds in the game.

It is often useful to be able to compute the variance in a single pass, inspecting each value only once ; for example, when the data are being collected without enough storage to keep all the values, or when costs of memory access dominate those of computation.
