Abstract: The performance of a neural network (NN) and/or deep neural network (DNN) can limited by the number of operations being performed as well as management of data among the various memory components of the NN/DNN. Using virtualized hardware iterators, data for processing by the NN/DNN can be traversed and configured to optimize the number of operations as well as memory utilization to enhance the overall performance of a NN/DNN. Operatively, an iterator controller can generate instructions for execution by the NN/DNN representative of one more desired iterator operation types and to perform one or more iterator operations. Data can be iterated according to a selected iterator operation and communicated to one or more neuron processors of the NN/DD for processing and output to a destination memory. The iterator operations can be applied to various volumes of data (e.g., blobs) in parallel or multiple slices of the same volume.
