REDUCING MEMORY ACCESSES FOR ENHANCED IN-MEMORY PARALLEL OPERATIONS

摘要

A memory storage system is that includes a memory element having a memory address for a physical memory. A memory controller receives a command for accessing the memory element using a program-generated address and dynamically transforms the program-generated address into the memory address for the physical memory using a rotation module and configuration information. A data word accessed by the physical address is then provided to a set of arithmetic logic units (ALUs) where multiple computations are performed simultaneously so as top reduce program execution time and energy. The configuration information provided to the rotation unit configures the set of ALUs.

1. A memory storage system comprising:
a memory element that includes a memory address for a physical memory; and a memory controller that receives a command for accessing the memory element using a program-generated address and dynamically transforms the program-generated address into the memory address for the physical memory using a rotation module and configuration information, wherein a data word accessed by the physical address is then provided to a set of arithmetic logic units (ALUs) where multiple computations are performed simultaneously so as to reduce program execution time and energy, the configuration information provided to the rotation unit configures the set of ALUs.
