Hello,
I am going to ask what might seem like a stupid question, but here it goes
anyway:
I am trying to build a new parallel computer as part of my thesis. At my
disposal are off-the-shelf components as well as the ability to build custom
chips (with MOSIS). Here is the problem: The architecture could really
benefit from having a large 5-port-read, 5-port-write RAM, all ports being
independent. Does such a beast exist? Or if I am going to design a custom
chip for it, how to do it without wasting too much silicon real estate?
Any response concerning this matter will be greatly appreciated.
