Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method of memory acceleration. The computer-implemented method includes mapping, by a processor, an array of logic blocks in system memory to an array of logic blocks stored in level 1 (L1) on an accelerator chip, wherein each logic block stores a respective look up table for a function, wherein each function row of a respective look up table stores an output function value and a combination of inputs to the function. The processor determines that a number of instances of request for the output function value from a logic block is less than a first threshold. The processor evicts the function row to a higher level memory.
