The phase-change random access memory (PRAM) technology is fast maturing to production levels. Main advantages of PRAM are non-volatility, byte addressability, in-place programmab...
3D-integration is a promising technology to help combat the “Memory Wall” in future multi-core processors. Past work has considered using 3D-stacked DRAM as a large last-level...
The increasing power dissipation of current processors and processor cores constrains design options, increases packaging and cooling costs, increases power delivery costs, and de...
