Riassunto (Italiano)
Analysis of an upper bound on the delay experienced by the access requests targeting the main memory. The worst-case delay is also a starting point to build more useful tools that help with the evaluation of memory performance: the main purpose of this work is, in fact, to derive a minimum service curve for a DRAM whose controller applies a FR-FCFS policy in servicing queued requests. Starting from basic propositions and their proofs, the worst-case is evaluated algorithmically: a particular sequence of events is built that leads to the maximum delay.
