Abstract: Methods and apparatuses relating to performing vector multiplication are described. Hardware accelerators to perform vector multiplication are also described. A combined fixed-point and floating-point vector multiplication circuit may include at least one switch to change the circuit between a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the circuit is to multiply mantissas from a same element position of a first floating-point vector and a second floating-point vector to produce a product, shift the products, produce signed representations of the shifted products, add the signed representations of the shifted products to produce a single product, and normalize the single product into a single floating-point resultant. In the second mode, the circuit is to multiply values from a same element position of a first integer vector and a second integer vector to produce a corresponding product, and add each corresponding product to produce a single integer resultant.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a fused multiply-add (FMA) circuit is configured to receive a plurality of input data values to perform an FMA instruction on the input data values. The circuit includes a multiplier unit and an adder unit coupled to an output of the multiplier unit, and a control logic to receive the input data values and to reduce switching activity and thus reduce power consumption of one or more components of the circuit based on a value of one or more of the input data values. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for enabling usage of an accelerator device in a processor socket is herein described. A set of inter-processor messages is utilized to initialize a configuration/memory space of the accelerator device. As an example, a first set of inter-processor interrupts (IPIs) is sent to indicate a base address of a memory space and a second set of IPIs is sent to indicate a size of the memory space. Furthermore, similar methods and apparatus' are herein described for dynamic reconfiguration of an accelerator device in a processor socket.
