Data prefetching has emerged as a critical approach to mitigate the performance bottlenecks imposed by memory access latencies in modern computer architectures. By predicting the data likely to be ...

With SRAM failing to scale in recent process nodes, the industry must assess its impact on all forms of computing. There are ...

Domain-specific AI has changed the game in computer architecture. Why there’s such a demand for neural networks. While the general-purpose processor has long dominated market share, there’s been a ...

Imagine having a conversation with someone who remembers every detail about your preferences, past discussions, and even the nuances of your personality. It feels natural, seamless, and, most ...

A team of researchers from leading institutions including Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Zhejiang University has developed what they're calling the first "memory operating system" for ai, ...

This course examines fundamental issues and design trade-offs in modern processor architectures. We will discuss some of the constraints that limit the design and programmability of modern processors, ...

Given the accuracy of Moore’s Law to the development of integrated circuits over the years, one would think that our present day period is no different from the past decades in terms of computer ...

Apple's Unified Memory Architecture first brought changes to the Mac with Apple Silicon M1 chips. There are clear architectural benefits for the hardware — and it is both good and bad for consumers.
