Internal Memory Devices and Systems in the Works of M.A. Kartsev

Internal memory devices and systems of four generations of computers and computer systems have been considered in this paper. These devices and systems were developed by M.A. Kartsev and under his supervision since early 1950s until 1983, from the computer M-2 to the system M-13. Features and positive properties of memory developments have been noted. They have largely determined high performance characteristics of computing devices in general.
