Using Silicon Photonics To Reduce Latency On Edge Devices
By Technical Paper Link - 26 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "Delocalized photonic deep learning on the internet’s edge" was published by researchers at MIT and Nokia Corporation. “Every time you want to run a neural network, you have to run the program, and how fast you can run the program depends on how fast you can pipe the program in from memory. Our pipe is massive — it corresponds to sending a full feature-leng... » read more

Co-Packaged Optics In The Data Center
By Ed Sperling - 08 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Just because faster Ethernet is added to the data center doesn’t mean existing hardware can utilize it efficiently. Scott Durrant, strategic marketing manager at Synopsys, talks with Semiconductor Engineering about the rapid rollout of faster Ethernet rates, problems in moving data to the front module of the switch and how much energy is required, and what optical technology can bring to the ... » read more

Novel H2H mapping algorithm with both computation and communication awareness
By Technical Paper Link - 06 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

New research paper "H2H: Heterogeneous Model to Heterogeneous System Mapping with Computation and Communication Awareness" from University of Pittsburgh, Georgia Tech. Abstract: "The complex nature of real-world problems calls for heterogeneity in both machine learning (ML) models and hardware systems. The heterogeneity in ML models comes from multi-sensor perceiving and multi-task lear... » read more

A Case for Transparent Reliability in DRAM Systems
By Technical Paper Link - 29 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical paper from ETH Zurich and TU Delft. Abstract "Today's systems have diverse needs that are difficult to address using one-size-fits-all commodity DRAM. Unfortunately, although system designers can theoretically adapt commodity DRAM chips to meet their particular design goals (e.g., by reducing access timings to improve performance, implementing system-level RowHammer mitigati... » read more

Improving Memory Efficiency And Performance
By Bryon Moyer - 28 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

This is the second of two parts on CXL vs. OMI. Part one can be found here. Memory pooling and sharing are gaining traction as ways of optimizing existing resources to handle increasing data volumes. Using these approaches, memory can be accessed by a number of different machines or processing elements on an as-needed basis. Two protocols, CXL and OMI, are being leveraged to simplify thes... » read more

Mapping Transformation Enabled High-Performance and Low-Energy Memristor-Based DNNs
By Technical Paper Link - 14 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract: "When deep neural network (DNN) is extensively utilized for edge AI (Artificial Intelligence), for example, the Internet of things (IoT) and autonomous vehicles, it makes CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor)-based conventional computers suffer from overly large computing loads. Memristor-based devices are emerging as an option to conduct computing in memory for DNNs to make... » read more

1.6 Tb/s Ethernet Challenges
By Ed Sperling - 16 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Moving data at blazing fast speeds sounds good in theory, but it raises a number of design challenges. John Swanson, senior product marketing manager for high-performance computing digital IP at Synopsys, talks about the impact of next-generation Ethernet on switches, the types of data that need to be considered, the causes of data growth, and the size and structure of data centers, both in the... » read more
