Publication number: 20240127367Abstract: A crop prediction system performs various machine learning operations to predict crop production and to identify a set of farming operations that, if performed, optimize crop production. The crop prediction system uses crop prediction models trained using various machine learning operations based on geographic and agronomic information. Responsive to receiving a request from a grower, the crop prediction system can access information representation of a portion of land corresponding to the request, such as the location of the land and corresponding weather conditions and soil composition. The crop prediction system applies one or more crop prediction models to the access information to predict a crop production and identify an optimized set of farming operations for the grower to perform.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: David Patrick Perry, Geoffrey Albert von Maltzahn, Robert Berendes, Eric Michael Jeck, Barry Loyd Knight, Rachel Ariel Raymond, Ponsi Trivisvavet, Justin Y H Wong, Neal Hitesh Rajdev, Marc-Cedric Joseph Meunier, Casey James Leist, Pranav Ram Tadi, Andrea Lee Flaherty, Charles David Brummitt, Naveen Neil Sinha, Jordan Lambert, Jonathan Hennek, Carlos Becco, Mark Allen, Daniel Bachner, Fernando Derossi, Ewan Lamont, Rob Lowenthal, Dan Creagh, Steve Abramson, Ben Allen, Jyoti Shankar, Chris Moscardini, Jeremy Crane, David Weisman, Gerard Keating, Lauren Moores, William Pate

Patent number: 11960438Abstract: A stacked processor-plus-memory device includes a processing die with an array of processing elements of an artificial neural network. Each processing element multiplies a first operand—e.g. a weight—by a second operand to produce a partial result to a subsequent processing element. To prepare for these computations, a sequencer loads the weights into the processing elements as a sequence of operands that step through the processing elements, each operand stored in the corresponding processing element. The operands can be sequenced directly from memory to the processing elements or can be stored first in cache. The processing elements include streaming logic that disregards interruptions in the stream of operands.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Rambus Inc.Inventors: Steven C. Woo, Michael Raymond Miller

Publication number: 20240119989Abstract: Row hammer is mitigated by issuing, to a memory device, mitigation operation (MOP) commands in order to cause the refresh of rows at a specified vicinity of a suspected aggressor row. These mitigation operation commands are each associated with respective row addresses that indicate the suspected aggressor row and an indicator of which neighbor row in the vicinity of the suspected aggressor row is to be refreshed. The mitigation operation commands are issued in response to a fixed number of activate commands. The suspected aggressor row is selected by randomly choosing, with equal probability, one of the N previous activate commands to supply its associated row address as the suspected aggressor row address. The neighbor row may be selected randomly with a probability that diminishes inversely with the distance between the suspected aggressor row and the neighbor row.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Steven C. WOO, Michael Raymond MILLER

Patent number: 11922066Abstract: An interconnected stack of one or more Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) die has a base logic die and one or more custom logic or processor die. The processor logic die snoops commands sent to and through the stack. In particular, the processor logic die may snoop mode setting commands (e.g., mode register set—MRS commands). At least one mode setting command that is ignored by the DRAM in the stack is used to communicate a command to the processor logic die. In response the processor logic die may prevent commands, addresses, and data from reaching the DRAM die(s). This enables the processor logic die to send commands/addresses and communicate data with the DRAM die(s). While being able to send commands/addresses and communicate data with the DRAM die(s), the processor logic die may execute software using the DRAM die(s) for program and/or data storage and retrieval.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Rambus Inc.Inventors: Thomas Vogelsang, Michael Raymond Miller, Steven C.
