Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely adopted, owing to break-through performance and high accuracy. DNNs exhibit varying memory behavior involving specific and recognizable memory access patterns and access intensity, depending on the selected ...

Deep neural network (DNN) implementations are typically characterized by huge datasets and concurrent computation, resulting in a demand for high memory bandwidth due to intensive data movement between processors and off-chip memory. Performing DNN ...

The Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), like CNN/DNN and LSTM, are not biologically plausible. Despite their initial success, they cannot attain the cognitive capabilities enabled by the dynamic hierarchical associative memory systems of biological ...

3D stacking improves bandwidth, energy, and latency of DRAMs by exploiting shorter and more abundant wiring in three dimensions. While future stacks are predicted to provide tens of DRAM layers, TSV pitches are bound to stop decreasing due to physical ...

Artificial Neural Networks have been applied to many traditional machine learning applications in image and speech processing. More recently, ANNs have caught attention of the bioinformatics community for their ability to not only speed up by not having ...

In this work we present an analysis of the Harmonica stream multiprocessor, a light-weight, parameterized, open-source single-instruction-multiple-thread (SIMT) core designed for integration within 3D-stacked DRAM. We evaluate the range of Harmonica ...

Over the last decade, the looming power wall has spurred a flurry of interest in developing heterogeneous systems with hardware accelerators. The questions, then, are what and how accelerators should be designed, and what software support is required. ...

This work studies the potential of using emerging 3D integration to improve embedded VLIW computing system. We focus on the 3D integration of one VLIW processor die with multiple high-capacity DRAM dies. Our proposed memory architecture employs 3D ...
