Abstract :
The paper outlines the current status of PPRAM-related projects at Kyushu University and other institutes: (1) PPRAM-Link; (2) PPRAM-Link interface IP cores; (3) reference PPRAM architectures; (4) PPRAM-MOE. The paper also discusses two on-chip memory-path architectures for PPRAM-type SOCs in detail: variable line-size cache and way-predicting set-associative cache
