Emerging non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies, such as PCRAM
and STT-RAM, are getting mature in recent years. These emerging NVM technologies
have demonstrated great potentials to be the candidates for future computer
memory architecture design. It is important for SoC designers and computer architects
to understand the benefits and limitations of such emerging memory technologies,
to improve the performance/power/reliability of future memory architectures.
This chapter gives a brief introduction of these memory technologies, reviews recent
advances in memory architecture design, discusses the benefits of using at various
levels of memory hierarchy, and also reviews the mitigation techniques to overcome
the limitations of applying such emerging memory technologies for future memory
architecture design.
