History
Nemo Systems was founded by Sundar Iyer (CTO) and Professor Nick McKeown (CEO) (both from Stanford University) in 2003 and received initial funding from angel investors, Benchmark Capital and Mohr Davidow Ventures. Nemo Systems was a fabless semiconductor company developing network memory technology that originated from the Stanford University High Performance Networking Group.
Network memory was promoted as providing latency and transaction rate performance of SRAM technology with the density of typical DRAM. Typical applications included buffering, statistics counters and flow records. The mathematical tools for the analysis of network memory algorithms were developed by 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.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“The thing that struck me forcefully was the feeling of great age about the place. Standing on that old parade ground, which is now a cricket field, I could feel the dead generations crowding me. Here was the oldest settlement of freedmen in the Western world, no doubt. Men who had thrown off the bands of slavery by their own courage and ingenuity. The courage and daring of the Maroons strike like a purple beam across the history of Jamaica.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“When the history of this period is written, [William Jennings] Bryan will stand out as one of the most remarkable men of his generation and one of the biggest political men of our country.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
