A 1,000x improvement in computer systems by bridging the processor-memory gap
Zvi Or-Bach · 2017
For over 4 decades the gap between computer processing speed and memory access has grown at about 50% per year, to more than 1,000x today. This provides an excellent opportunity to enhance the single-core system performance. An innovative 3D integration technology combined with re-architecting the integrated memory device is proposed to bridge the gap and enable a 1,000 x improvement in computer systems. The proposed technology utilizes processes that are widely available and could be integrated in products within a very short time.
