A microprocessor integrated with DRAM on the same die has the potential to improve system performance by reducing the memory latency and improving the memory bandwidth. However, a...
For the past two decades, developments in DRAM technology, the primary technology for the main memory of computers, have been directed towards increasing density. As a result 256 M...
The RAMpage hierarchy moves main memory up a level to replace the lowest-level cache by an equivalent-sized SRAM main memory. This paper is a first look at the value of RAMpage to ...
In response to the growing gap between memory access time and processor speed, DRAM manufacturers have created several new DRAM architectures. This paper presents a simulation-bas...

A programmable single-chip multiprocessor system for video coding has been developed. The system is implemented in a high-performance 0.25 m logic/embedded DRAM process. It integr...
This paper advocates the use of 3D integration technology to stack a DRAM on top of an FPGA. The DRAM will store future FPGA contexts. A configuration is read from the DRAM into a...
DRAM vendors have traditionally optimized the cost-perbit metric, often making design decisions that incur energy penalties. A prime example is the overfetch feature in DRAM, wher...
