This paper presents the notion of a monolithic computer, a future computer architecture in which a CPU and a high-capacity main memory system are integrated in a single die. Such computers will become possible in the near future due to emerging non-volatile memory technology. In particular, we consider using resistive random access memory, or ReRAM, from Crossbar Incorporated.
