  • Patent number: 11436258
    Abstract: With increasing demand for distributed intelligent physical systems performing big data analytics on the field and in real-time, processing-in-memory (PIM) architectures integrating 3D-stacked memory and logic layers could provide higher performance and energy efficiency. Towards this end, the PIM design requires principled and rigorous optimization strategies to identify interactions and manage data movement across different vaults.

  • Publication number: 20210049465
    Abstract: A self-optimizing and self-programming computing system (SOSPCS) design framework that achieves both programmability and flexibility and exploits computing heterogeneity [e.g., CPUs, GPUs, and hardware accelerators (HWAs)] is provided. First, at compile time, a task pool consisting of hybrid tasks with different processing element (PE) affinities according to target applications is formed. Tasks preferred to be executed on GPUs or accelerators are detected from target applications by neural networks. Tasks suitable to run on CPUs are formed by community detection to minimize data movement overhead. Next, a distributed reinforcement learning-based approach is used at runtime to allow agents to map the tasks onto the network-on-chip-based heterogeneous PEs by learning an optimal policy based on Q values in the environment.

  • Publication number: 20060112357
    Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for modeling an electronic element. Sensitivity of an output current to an input voltage without noise is determined. Output current is calculated in the event noise is present at an input using sensitivity. An output voltage is derived from the output current. The output current waveform may be derived using a Taylor expansion.
