Abstract: Examples include techniques for near data acceleration for a multi-core architecture. A near data processor included in a memory controller of a processor may access data maintained in a memory device coupled with the near data processor via one or more memory channels responsive to a work request to execute a kernel, an application or a loop routine using the accessed data to generate values. The near data processor provides an indication to the requestor of the work request that values have been generated.
