What is the difference between DRAM and SDRAM?

[nitzz]

Main Question or Discussion Point

Hi all,
I dont have much knowledge on semiconductor field. So may i get help from you all,,,
I am doing a project on DRAM technological evolution in university. When i was referring a book, it is stated the SDRAM is the third generation DRAM. But I can not undestand what is SDRAM. Those DRAMs that manufacturing today is come under the SDRAM catagory?
Thanks :)
