....occupies only about onethird of the die (Table 3) the upcoming gigabit DRAM has enough capacity that whole programs and data sets can fit on a single chip. In the past, so little memory could fit onchip with the CPU that IRAMs were mainly considered as building blocks for multiprocessors [Bar78][Kog95] Noa93] Third, DRAM dies have grown about 50 each generation; DRAMs are being made with more metal layers to accelerate the longer lines of these larger chips. Also, the high speed interface of synchronous DRAM will require fast transistors on the DRAM chip. These two DRAM trends should ....

....the graph, the same technology advance that increases memory density also makes logic faster. In our view, early IRAM researchers were lured by the promise of scalable multiprocessing, due in part to the lack of sufficient on chip memory, which distracted them from first making good uniprocessors [Bar78]. More recent efforts have targeted multiple processors on a chip to get high peak performance but have neglected the difficulty of programming such machines, especially when memory is limited [Kog95] Gigabit DRAM has sufficient on chip memory to allow IRAMs with more balanced systems for fast ....
