A memory accelerator with gather functions for bandwidth-bound irregular applications

Abstract: Compute intensive processing can be easily accelerated using processors with many cores such as GPUs. However, memory bandwidth limitation becomes serious year by year for memory bandwidth intensive applications such as sparse matrix vector multiplications (SpMV). In order to accelerate memory bandwidth intensive applications, we have proposed a memory system with additional functions of scattering and gathering. For the preliminary evaluation of our proposed system, we assumed that the throughput of the memor… Show more

“…More specifically, data flows into and out of the processor in parallel like sparks for rapid analysis [2,4,9,10]. It is also possible to introduce new memory hierarchies, such as 3-D memory stacking, to improve bandwidth, energy efficiency and scalability [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. How to reduce data movement and energy consumption as much as possible also depends on these new storage technologies in large-scale storage systems.…”
