Workshop on High Performance Memory Systems, Charlottesville, Virginia, October 12-15, 1992

未来计算机体系结构中最紧迫的问题之一，因此也是最具影响力的因素之一，是处理器和负担得起的(DRAM)存储器的性能之间日益扩大的差距。召开了一次专家研讨会，讨论与这个问题相关的所有问题-至少包括芯片技术、体系结构、缓存、内存层次结构中的新概念、编译器优化、编程技术和算法。讲习班的目的是分析这一问题，并就与这一问题有关的各个领域提出研究议程。研讨会的结果报告将会出版。

One of the most pressing problems, and hence most influential factors in future computer architectures is the growing disparity in the performance of processors and affordable (DRAM) memories. A workshop of experts is convened on the full spectrum of issues relevant to this problem-including at least chip technology, architecture, caching, new concepts in memory hierarchy, compiler optimization, programming techniques, and algorithms. The objective of the workshop is to assay the problem and suggest research agenda for the various areas bearing on the issue. A report of the results of the workshop will be published.
