  • Memory controller to utilize DRAM write buffers
    Publication number: 20060123187
    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program are provided to account for data stored in Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) write buffers. There is difficulty in tracking the data stored in DRAM write buffers. To alleviate the difficulty, a cache line list is employed. The cache line list is maintained in a memory controller, which is updated with data movement. This list allows for ease of maintenance of data without loss of consistency.
