Memory disorder - There are several different types of memory disorders which occur in the human mind. Among these are less severe disorders including minor short term memory loss, and the eventually incapacitating Alzheimer's Disease. Nonverbal learning disorder - Nonverbal Learning Disorder (NLD) (also known as NVLD) is a neurological syndrome consisting of specific assets and deficits. The assets include early speech and vocabulary development, remarkable rote memory skills, attention to detail, early reading skills development and excellent spelling skills. Anterograde amnesia - Anterograde amnesia is a form of amnesia, or memory loss, where new events are not transferred to long-term memory. After the onset of the disorder, the sufferer will not be able to remember anything that occurs after his attention is shifted away from one subject for more than a few seconds. Non-Uniform Memory Access - Non-Uniform Memory Access or Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA) is a computer memory design used in multiprocessors, where the memory access time depends on the memory location relative to a processor. Under NUMA, a processor can access its own local memory faster than non-local memory, that is, memory which is local to another processor or shared between processors. handbookofmemorydisorder |
