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.
