We propose a novel approach for realizing energy-efficient memory units with low switching time, compatible with already developed superconducting electronics. Our setup consists of conventional superconductor-insulator-conventional superconductor heterostructures, i.e. Josephson junctions, where supercurrents and magnetic fields are externally applied. Manipulating the relative orientation of the applied supercurrents and/or magnetic fields allows us to control the critical Josephson current and the 0-π transition of the Josephson junction. The insulating link among the two conventional superconductors quarantees the high normal phase resistance of the junction, corresponding to low switching time.
