Overcoming The'Memory Wall'By Improved System Design Exploration And A Link To Process Technology Options

摘要

Data transfer and storage issues“take the centre stage”in information and communication systems because of the in- creasing complexity and data dominance typically associated to them.In this paper,we summarise a systematic methodology for the power critical storage modules such as local SRAMs.We focus on their memory organisation (access schedule and data assignment)together with an ex- ploration of the effect that the interconnect technology may have on the energy consumed by these local memory organisations in deep sub-micron technologies.
