Abstract
The Static Column RAM devices recently introduced offer the potential for implementing a direct-mapped cache on-chip with only a small increase in complexity over that needed for a conventional dynamic RAM memory system. Trace-driven simulation shows that such a cache can only be marginally effective if used in the obvious way. However it can be effective in satisfying the requests from a processor containing an on-chip cache. The SCRAM cache is more effective if the processor cache handles both instructions and data.Keywords
