Foam

Memory state optimisation.

Experimental memory-state optimisation for efficient, reconstructable and verification-aware AI infrastructure.

What it is

Foam explores how memory state can be represented more efficiently while preserving the information needed by higher-level reconstruction and verification processes.

Technology Foam
Layer Memory
Status Research

Memory is infrastructure, not an unlimited resource.

Foam investigates memory optimisation as a structured state problem. Instead of treating memory reduction as an opaque runtime trick, relevant state transitions and recovery requirements remain explicit.

01

Profile

Observe the memory state and identify the structures responsible for the active footprint.

02

Separate

Distinguish active, reconstructable and redundant memory representation.

03

Optimise

Reduce or reorganise the memory representation within the defined boundary.

04

Recover

Restore required state when downstream computation or verification needs it.

05

Measure

Compare footprint, recoverability and verification-relevant behavior against the baseline.

Use less memory without making state invisible.

Foam is intended for controlled environments where memory pressure matters but state must remain understandable enough to support reconstruction and higher-level verification.

A

Profile

Capture a reproducible baseline of the workload and its memory behavior.

B

Map

Identify which memory structures are essential, reconstructable or redundant.

C

Optimise

Apply the selected memory-state optimisation strategy.

D

Restore

Recover state when the workload requires information that is no longer fully resident.

E

Evaluate

Measure memory reduction together with recovery and verification behavior.

Memory reduction should remain measurable.

Foam experiments should preserve enough evidence to show what memory was reduced, what was recoverable and what trade-offs were introduced.

Baseline footprint

Memory use measured before optimisation.

State map

Classification of relevant memory structures inside the experiment boundary.

Optimised footprint

Memory use measured after the optimisation step.

Recovery behavior

Evidence describing whether required state can be reconstructed when needed.

Resource delta

Measured reduction or redistribution of the active memory footprint.

Verification basis

The baseline and retained evidence needed to compare experiment outcomes.

Memory efficiency is not proof of behavioral equivalence.

Foam is experimental memory infrastructure. Any claim about preservation or equivalence must remain limited to the state and measurements actually evaluated.

  • Foam does not prove that every internal runtime state remains identical.
  • Reduced memory use does not automatically imply equivalent model behavior.
  • Recoverability applies only to state represented inside the defined optimisation boundary.
  • Performance results depend on workload, runtime, model and system configuration.
  • Experimental results must not be generalized beyond the measured evidence.

Start with one measurable memory problem.

A Foam experiment should begin with a reproducible workload whose memory footprint can be measured before and after optimisation without changing the verification question midway through the experiment.

01

Measure baseline

Record the workload, memory footprint and state requirements before optimisation.

02

Define recovery boundary

Identify which state must remain resident, reconstructable or independently verifiable.

03

Optimise and compare

Apply the experiment, measure resource change and evaluate recovery against the baseline.
