Abstract

DRAM with ECC is used widely and the size of DRAW increases. According to this, DRAM initial time, especially the time to make the whole area typical value, 0, increases. This paper introduces the method that without any additional hardware, using characteristic of DRAM and DRAM controller, minimize that memory initial time. Conservative reordering - it eliminates DRAM read time and makes write buffer used - reduces initial time to make the whole DRAM area 0, by 95.36% for DDR DRAM. 9341% for Rambus DRAM.
