Abstract: This application relates to a method and apparatus for processing a new read-write-operation instruction added to an instruction set to maximize the performance of processing-in-memory (PIM). The read-write-operation instruction performs reading and writing on an operation result of the PIM by returning the operation result of the PIM to a computer system and, at the same time, writing the operation result to a destination address. An instruction processor in PIM includes a response data selector and a finite state machine to process the read-write-operation instruction. The response data selector includes a selector configured to select one of a response data signal and an operation result, and a three-phase buffer configured to allow or disallow response data. The finite state machine of the instruction processor outputs a response permission signal and a response selection signal for controlling the buffer and the selector.

Abstract: This application relates to a memory management method for maximizing processing-in-memory (PIM) performance and reducing unnecessary DRAM access time. In one aspect, when processing a PIM instruction packet, an instruction processing unit secondarily processes a request for access to a destination address at which read and write actions of an internal memory are likely to be sequentially performed. By secondarily requesting the destination address, a row address of an open page of the internal memory may match a row address to which a PIM instruction packet processing result is written back. Also, the instruction processing unit inside the PIM maintains memory write and read addresses that have previously requested. The instruction processing unit compares the address of a packet to be processed to the maintained previous memory address and informs a memory controller about the comparison result through a page closing signal.
