The authors report on the design of efficient cache controller suitable for use in FPGA-based processors. Semiconductor memory which can operate at speeds comparable with the operation of the ...

System-on-chip (SoC) architects have a new memory technology, last level cache (LLC), to help overcome the design obstacles of bandwidth, latency and power consumption in megachips for advanced driver ...

• Designed a generic Cache simulator module and modeled L1, L2 caches augmented with a Victim Cache. • Implemented using C++ and evaluated with SPEC address traces for gcc, perl, vortex, compress and ...

When talking about CPU specifications, in addition to clock speed and number of cores/threads, ' CPU cache memory ' is sometimes mentioned. Developer Gabriel G. Cunha explains what this CPU cache ...

In the eighties, computer processors became faster and faster, while memory access times stagnated and hindered additional performance increases. Something had to be done to speed up memory access and ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. This article discusses memory and chip and system design talks at the 2025 AI Infra Summit in Santa Clara, CA by Kove, Pliops and ...

How lossless data compression can reduce memory and power requirements. How ZeroPoint’s compression technology differs from the competition. One can never have enough memory, and one way to get more ...

The Cache Coherent Interconnect for Accelerators standard, or CCIX (pronounced “see 6”), is built on PCI Express (PCIe) to provide a chip-to-chip interconnect for high-speed hardware accelerators. It ...

Why it matters: A RAM drive is traditionally conceived as a block of volatile memory "formatted" to be used as a secondary storage disk drive. RAM disks are extremely fast compared to HDDs or even ...

Embedded Dynamic Random Access Memory (eDRAM) design is rapidly evolving to meet the escalating performance and energy efficiency demands of contemporary processors. This technology has emerged as a ...
