The cost associated with moving data in and out of memory is becoming prohibitive, both in terms of performance and power, and it is being made worse by the data locality in algorithms, which limits ...

New paper technical titled “Benchmarking a New Paradigm: An Experimental Analysis of a Real Processing-in-Memory Architecture” led by researchers at ETH Zurich. Researchers provide a comprehensive ...

From a conceptual standpoint, the idea of embedding processing within main memory makes logical sense since it would eliminate many layers of latency between compute and memory in modern systems and ...

The bleeding edge: In-memory processing is a fascinating concept for a new computer architecture that can compute operations within the system's memory. While hardware accommodating this type of ...

Part one of this two-part article discussed current trends impacting the evolution of data processing architectures, including the implications of higher transistor budgets afforded by Moore’s Law, ...

Micron is challenging conventional computer architectures conceived decades ago with Automata, a highly parallel processor that can change its behavior to process the task at hand. The Automata ...

Virtual memory is a valuable concept in computer architecture that allows you to run large, sophisticated programs on a computer even if it has a relatively small amount of RAM. A computer with ...
