Abstract: Examples described herein include apparatuses and methods for full duplex device-to-device cooperative communication. Example systems described herein may include self-interference noise calculators. The output of a self-interference noise calculator may be used to compensate for the interference experienced due to signals transmitted by another antenna of the same wireless device or system. In implementing such a self-interference noise calculator, a selected wireless relaying device or wireless destination device may operate in a full-duplex mode, such that relayed messages may be transmitted as well as information from other sources or destinations during a common time period (e.g., symbol, slot, subframe, etc.).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for verification of a volatile memory, such as a dynamic random-access memory (DRAM), using a unique identifier (ID) are described. A memory device may store a unique ID for a DRAM component of the memory device in non-volatile memory (e.g., in the DRAM, external to the DRAM). A host device coupled with the memory device may store, to non-volatile memory at the host device, information for verifying the identity of the DRAM component, for example, based on the unique ID. The memory device and host device may perform a procedure for verification of the identity of the DRAM component using the unique ID of the DRAM and the verification information stored at the host device. If the host device detects that the DRAM has been replaced or modified based on the verification procedure, the host device may disable one or more features of the memory device.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for tensor memory access are described. Multiple data located in different physical addresses of memory may be concurrently read or written by, for example, employing various processing patterns of tensor or matrix related computations. A memory controller, which may comprise a data address generator, may be configured to generate a sequence of memory addresses for a memory access operation based on a starting address and a dimension of a tensor or matrix. At least one dimension of a tensor or matrix may correspond to a row, a column, a diagonal, a determinant, or an Nth dimension of the tensor or matrix. The memory controller may also comprise a buffer configured to read and write the data generated from or according to a sequence of memory of addresses.

Abstract: A controller performs an access operation on a word line which is in a portion of a memory array in a memory device. The controller counts accesses on a portion-by-portion basis (e.g., a bank-by-bank basis, a sub-bank-by-sub-bank basis, etc.). The memory counts accesses on a word line-by-word line basis. The memory sets a refresh management (RFM) flag for a portion based on the counts associated with the word lines in that portion. The controller checks the RFM flag for a portion based on the access count for the portion. The controller issues an RFM command after checking the RFM flag if the RFM flag is set.

The processing mode selection may include a single processing mode, a multi-processing mode, or a full processing mode. The processing mode selection may be associated with an aspect of a wireless protocol.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for repairing defective memory cells in regions of a memory array associated with high or low priority levels are disclosed. A repair address generator may be configured to generate a memory address map for repair (e.g., blowing fuses at a fuse circuit), depending on whether certain applications may operate at a high priority level indicative of a low bit error rate or a low priority level indicative of a higher bit error rate. For example, a specified error rate associated with a low priority level may correspond to a threshold error rate for certain applications, such as a neural network application that stores trained weights. Such neural network applications may access trained weights being partially stored in defective memory cells, with the least significant bits of such trained weights being stored in defective memory cells that are not repaired according to the memory address map.

Abstract: Examples of systems and method described herein provide for accessing memory devices and, concurrently, generating access codes using an authenticated stream cipher at a memory controller. For example, a memory controller may use a memory access request to, concurrently, perform translation logic and/or error correction on data associated with the memory access request; while also utilizing the memory address as an initialization vector for an authenticated stream cipher to generate an access code. The error correction may be performed subsequent to address translation for a write operation (or prior to address translation for a read operation) to improve processing speed of memory access requests at a memory controller; while the memory controller also generates the encrypted access code.

Abstract: Examples of systems and method described herein or generating, in a memory controller and/or memory device, access codes for memory regions of the memory device using authentication logic, and for accessing the memory device using the access codes. For example, a memory controller and/or a coupled memory device may generate access codes that a host computing device may include in a memory access request to access one or more memory regions of the memory device. Data read or written at the memory device may in some examples only be accessed in accordance with the access codes for memory regions of the memory device. Accordingly, the systems and methods described herein may provide security for specific memory regions of a memory device because the access code are updated periodically (e.g., based on obtained reset indication) or in accordance with an updated count value from a counter.
