  • Publication number: 20260147396
    Abstract: A system and method for mitigating sharp increases in power consumption associated with integrated circuits that may compute large workloads (e.g., computations). A processor may receive a signal associated with a workload. When the workload is determined to be above a workload threshold, a first signal may be sent to a compute engine to initiate a background computation for a ramp up period to increase the power consumption to a threshold. The workload may be performed following the ramp up period. The processor may send a second signal in response to the end of performing the workload. The second signal may initiate a background computation for a ramp down period, such that the power consumption in a ramp down period does not rapidly decrease to zero following a workloads computation.

  • Publication number: 20260147477
    Abstract: Methods, systems, or apparatuses for storage and access of micro-scaling numerics (MX) format data in memory. The approach may involve organizing MX data into tiled formats that match the read capabilities of consuming hardware blocks, interleaving scaling data with floating-point data, storing floating-point data in raster scan order, and storing scaling data in sub-tiles packed in multiples of a memory line size. A constant product of tile x-size and format size may be maintained across different MX format sizes, ensuring consistent memory utilization. This method may affect memory management for MX format data.
