Nemo Systems
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nemo Systems is a developer of network memory based out of the Silicon Valley area in California. It was acquired by Cisco Systems on October 14, 2005[1].
Nemo Systems is a fabless semiconductor developing Network Memory technology that enables cost-effective scaling of switches and routers. Network Memory technology originated from the Stanford University High Performance Networking Group.
Network Memory provides the latency and transaction rate performance of SRAM technology with the density of typical DRAM solutions. This enables high performance networking products to scale cost-effectively. Typical applications of Network Memory technology include buffering, statistics counters and flow records. The benefits of Network Memory are significant power, cost and pin count savings.
Nemo Systems was founded by Sundar Iyer (CTO) and Prof. Nick McKeown (CEO) (both from Stanford University) in 2003 and received initial funding from angel investors, Benchmark Capital and Mohr Davidow Ventures.
The mathematical tools for the analysis of network memory algorithms was developed by Sundar Iyer, as part of his PhD thesis at Stanford. The Nemo technology is based on five years of original research at Stanford University and then at Nemo Systems.
They are located in Silicon Valley, California.
