  • PROCESSOR WITH MEMORY-EMBEDDED PIPELINE FOR TABLE-DRIVEN COMPUTATION
    Publication number: 20150074381
    Abstract: A processor and a method implemented by the processor to obtain computation results are described. The processor includes a unified reuse table embedded in a processor pipeline, the unified reuse table including a plurality of entries, each entry of the plurality of entries corresponding with a computation instruction or a set of computation instructions. The processor also includes a functional unit to perform a computation based on a corresponding instruction.

  • Page merging for buffer efficiency in hybrid memory systems
    Patent number: 8874827
    Abstract: In a first embodiment of the present invention, a method for managing memory in a hybrid memory system is provided, wherein the hybrid memory system has a first memory and a second memory, wherein the first memory is smaller than the second memory and the first and second memories are of different types, the method comprising: identifying two or more pages in the first memory that are compatible with each other based at least in part on a prediction of when individual blocks within each of the two or more pages will be accessed; merging the two or more compatible pages, producing a merged page; and storing the merged page in the first memory.
