Line 84: * In early 2008, a [[Linux]] project named [[zram]] (originally called compcache) was released; in a 2013 update, it was incorporated into [[Chrome OS]]<ref name="zram-google-page"/> and [[Android (operating system)\|Android]] 4.4 * In 2010, IBM released Active Memory Expansion (AME) for [[AIX]] 6.1 which implements virtual memory compression.<ref name="IBM-AIX-AME"/> * In 2012, some versions of the [[POWER7]]+ chip included AME hardware accelerators using the [[842 (compression algorithm)\|842 compression algorithm]] for data compression support, used on AIX, for virtual memory compression.<ref name="IBM-POWER7+"/>. More recent POWER processors continue to support the feature. * In December 2012, the [[zswap]] project was announced; it was merged into the [[Linux kernel mainline]] in September 2013. * In June 2013, Apple announced that it would include virtual memory compression in [[OS X Mavericks]], using the Wilson-Kaplan WKdm algorithm.<ref name="Arstechnica"/><ref name="Willson_Usenix"/>
