Patent number: 11334786Abstract: A method (and structure and computer product) to optimize an operation in a Neural Network Accelerator (NNAccel) that includes a hierarchy of neural network layers as computational stages for the NNAccel and a configurable hierarchy of memory modules including one or more on-chip Static Random-Access Memory (SRAM) modules and one or more Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DRAM) modules, where each memory module is controlled by a plurality of operational parameters that are adjustable by a controller of the NNAcc. The method includes detecting bit error rates of memory modules currently being used by the NNAccel and determining, by the controller, whether the detected bit error rates are sufficient for a predetermined threshold value for an accuracy of a processing of the NNAccel. One or more operational parameters of one or more memory modules are dynamically changed by the controller to move to a higher accuracy state when the accuracy is below the predetermined threshold value.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2019Date of Patent: May 17, 2022Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Alper Buyuktosunoglu, Nandhini Chandramoorthy, Prashant Jayaprakash Nair, Karthik V.

Patent number: 11245415Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for data compression. A cluster fingerprint of an uncompressed data block is determined to correspond to a cluster fingerprint of a base block stored in a base array. This determining involves looking up the cluster fingerprint of the first base block from the base array using the cluster fingerprint of the first uncompressed data block. The difference between the uncompressed data block and the base block is determined, and a compressed data block is encoded using this difference. The compressed data block is then stored in a data array.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2021Date of Patent: February 8, 2022Assignee: THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY-INDUSTRY LIAISON OFFICEInventors: Amin Ghasemazar, Prashant Jayaprakash Nair, Mieszko Lis

Patent number: 10831669Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products using multi-tag storage to enable efficient data compression in caches without increasing a tag/data area overhead. One method can comprise storing compressed versions of data elements in a data array of a cache, with tags for the compressed versions respectively appended to the compressed versions as stored in the data array, and storing hashed versions of the tags in a tag array of the cache, wherein the hashed versions of the tags respectively have fewer bits than the tags. A tag block may store hashed versions of tags corresponding to first and second compressed data elements stored in a cacheline of the cache. Hashed tag entries may be compared with full versions of the tags appended to compressed versions of data elements stored in the data array to prevent false positive cache reads. A compressed identifier (CID) may be stored with the hashed versions of tags in the tag array.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2018Date of Patent: November 10, 2020Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Prashant Jayaprakash Nair, Seokin Hong, Alper Buyuktosunoglu, Michael B.
