Abstract: Aiming at the consideration of improving the utilizing efficiency of off-chip bandwidth and resolving “Memory Wall” problem, this paper designs a Data-Parallel Memory System(DPMS) for the tiled stream processor in current project. This memory system can reduce the time costs of off-chip memory access and meet the needs of off-chip bandwidth. Results of software simulation and emulation verification indicate that for different workloads, the design can fully capture the row-locality and bank-parallelism of memory access, by optimizing the configuration parameters and further boost the utilizing efficiency of DRAM bandwidth.
