Abstract:
A configurable computing system which uses near-memory and in-memory hardened logic blocks is described herein. The hardened logic blocks are incorporated into memory modules. The memory modules include an interface or communication logic to communicate between the configurable computing substrate and the memory module. In an implementation, the memory modules can include an on-die memory or other forms of non-configurable logic to enable more efficient processing for a variety of operations. In another implementation, the memory modules can include a portion of configurable computing substrate logic fabric to enable more efficient processing for a variety of operations. In another implementation, the memory modules can include an on-die memory and a portion of configurable computing substrate logic fabric to enable more efficient processing for a variety of operations.
