Content-Addressable Memories for Quadtree-Based Images
Quadtrees are attractive for storing and processing ,mages with area coherence, but performance has been limited by software overheads. A Content-Addressable Memory (CAM) with ternary storage allows single-cycle searches by pixel coordinate, quadrant or rectangle. To use thiS feature effectively the authors have reviewed a range of quadlree orocessing functions relevant to computer graphics and...
متن کاملEvaluating the Usefulness of Content Addressable Storage
Content Addressable Storage (CAS) is increasingly being used as a technique to provide for space savings when storing datasets. In this paper we analyze the performance of CAS on real-world applications and discuss the effects on space savings, savings in network bandwidth and on resultant error resilience of data. We find that a chunksize of 1 KB can provide up to 84% space savings and even hi...
متن کاملTesting and Diagnosing Embedded Content Addressable Memories
Embedded content addressable memories (CAMs) are important components in many system chips. In this paper two efficient March-like test algorithms are proposed. In addition to typical RAM faults, they also cover CAMspecific comparison faults. The first algorithm requires 9N Read/Write operations and 2(N + W ) Compare operations to cover comparison and RAM faults (but does not fully cover the in...
متن کاملMethodologies for testing embedded content addressable memories
This paper presents a design strategy for efficient and comprehensive testing of embedded dynamic content addressable memory (DCAM) where the address, data, and hit lines are not externally controllable or observable. Based on the design for testability approach, three algorithms are developed for testing common functional faults in CAM’s. The first algorithm provides a new method of detecting ...
متن کاملYield Enhancement Techniques for Content-Addressable Memories
In this paper, block-level reconfiguration techniques are proposed for content-addressable memories. The CAM words and redundant words are divided into blocks and reconfiguration is performed at the block level instead of the conventional word level. The reconfiguration mechanism used to implement our technique requires negligible hardware overhead. According to simulation results, the hardwar...
