Book excerpt: The von Neumann bottleneck has been growing narrower over the years, as CPU speed and memory have been increasing much faster than the bandwidth between them can accommodate. One promising approach to circumvent this problem is logic-in-memory computing, where computation is performed in the memory itself, significantly reducing traffic between the CPU and the memory subsystem. The most practical implementation of logic-in-memory utilizes electronic devices that can perform both storage and logic while being monolithically integrated into existing CMOS technology. A very prominent example of such a device is the memristor a two-terminal memory devices with high endurance, low power consumption, and proven scalability down to 10 nm. Memristors are now actively investigated for non-volatile memory applications and energy-efficient hardware implementations of artificial neural networks. Recently, a novel logic-in-memory approach implementing material implication logic with memristors was proposed by Hewlett Packard, providing a potential new way forward for opening the von Neumann bottleneck.
