Abstract: A processor includes a processing core and a cache controller including a read queue and a separate write queue. The read queue is to buffer read requests of the processing core to a non-volatile memory, last level cache (NVM-LLC), and the write queue is to buffer write requests to the NVM-LLC. The cache controller is to detect whether the write queue is full. The cache controller further prioritizes a first order of sending requests to the NVM-LLC when the write queue contains an empty slot, the first order specifying a first pattern of sending the read requests before the write requests, and prioritizes a second order of sending requests to the NVM-LLC in response to a determination that the write queue is full, the second order specifying a second pattern of alternating between sending a write request from the write queue and a read request from the read queue.

Abstract: Embodiments include apparatuses, methods, and systems associated with save-restore circuitry including metal-ferroelectric-metal (MFM) devices. The save-restore circuitry may be coupled to a bit node and/or bit bar node of a pair of cross-coupled inverters to save the state of the bit node and/or bit bar node when an associated circuit block transitions to a sleep state, and restore the state of the bit node and/or bit bar node when the associated circuit block transitions from the sleep state to an active state. The save-restore circuitry may be used in a flip-flop circuit, a register file circuit, and/or another suitable type of circuit. The save-restore circuitry may include a transmission gate coupled between the bit node (or bit bar node) and an internal node, and an MFM device coupled between the internal node and a plate line. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: A modified 2-pass version of the SoftMax operation can be implemented to address reduce computational cost without loss of accuracy, in particular for deep learning neural networks such as transformer-based neural networks and large language models (LLMs). The first pass is modified to include two scalar operations at the end. At the end of the first pass, a first scalar operation is performed to calculate a logarithm of the denominator, and a second scalar operation is performed to calculate an operand value based on a sum of the logarithm of the denominator and the maximum value. The second pass is modified to perform addition and exponentiation. In the second pass, an element of an input tensor is subtracted by the operand value to obtain an exponent, and a base is raised to the exponent. The second pass avoids divisions.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided which comprises one or more magnetoelectric spin orbit (MESO) minority gates with different peripheral complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuit techniques in the device layer including: (1) current mirroring, (2) complementary supply voltages, (3) asymmetrical transistor sizing, and (4) using transmission gates. These MESO minority gates use the multi-phase clock to prevent back propagation of current so that MESO gate can correctly process the input data.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for the management of power of a NZE IoT device. Managing power can include receiving the one or more asynchronous events from the asynchronous event system, determining if any of the one or more asynchronous events meet a respective charge qualification, generating the power-on command for the power-managed compute system if any of the one or more asynchronous events meet the respective charge qualification, and waiting for a power source to reach a threshold associated with the respective charge qualification if any of the one or more asynchronous events do not meet the respective charge qualification.

Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for providing electrical insulation of a through-substrate interconnect (TI). In an embodiment, the TI extends between a first side of the substrate and a second side of the substrate opposite the first side. The substrate has formed therein a conductive shell structure that extends at least partially around a periphery of the TI. A first dielectric liner structure is disposed between the conductive shell structure and a bulk material of the substrate. A second dielectric liner structure is disposed between the conductive shell structure and the TI. In another embodiment, a voltage of the conductive shell structure is allowed to float while the TI exchanges a signal or a supply voltage.

Abstract: Described is an low overhead method and apparatus to reconfigure a pair of buffered interconnect links to operate in one of these three modes—first mode (e.g., bandwidth mode), second mode (e.g., latency mode), and third mode (e.g., energy mode). In bandwidth mode, each link in the pair buffered interconnect links carries a unique signal from source to destination. In latency mode, both links in the pair carry the same signal from source to destination, where one link in the pair is “primary” and other is called the “assist”. Temporal alignment of transitions in this pair of buffered interconnects reduces the effective capacitance of primary, thereby reducing delay or latency. In energy mode, one link in the pair, the primary, alone carries a signal, while the other link in the pair is idle. An idle neighbor on one side reduces energy consumption of the primary.
