The central part of the architecture is a memory cube in which the objects can be processed in their real shape as a three-dimensional data array. The development has been rendered possible at reasonable costs through the rapid progress in the realm of VLSI-memory technology.10.1111/j.1467-8659.1985.tb00183.x21-32
