In this papel; we address the severe performance gap caused by high processor clock rates and slow DRAM accesses. We show that even with an aggressive, next-generation memory syst...
—We present OCDIMM (Optically Connected DIMM), a CPU-DRAM interface that takes advantage of multiwavelength optical interconnects. We show that OCDIMM has at least three key bene...

In computer architecture, caches have primarily been viewed as a means to hide memory latency from the CPU. Cache policies have focused on anticipating the CPU’s data needs, and...

We have studied DRAM-level prefetching for the fully buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) designed for multi-core processors. FB-DIMM has a unique two-level interconnect structure, with FB-DIM...
