Ringworld was published in 1970, long before Vinge wrote about the Singularity.
I just discovered that Vinge's A Fire Upon the Deep was published in 1992, but his writings on the singularity weren't published until 1993. For some reason I'd always assumed they were published in the opposite order. Presumably he'd been thinking about it for quite a while.
