This book provides a structured introduction of the key concepts
and techniques that enable in-/near-memory computing. For decades,
processing-in-memory or near-memory computing has been attracting
growing interest due to its potential to break the memory wall.
Near-memory computing moves compute logic near the memory, and
thereby reduces data movement. Recent work has also shown that
certain memories can morph themselves into compute units by
exploiting the physical properties of the memory cells, enabling
in-situ computing in the memory array. While in- and near-memory
computing can circumvent overheads related to data movement, it
comes at the cost of restricted flexibility of data representation
and computation, design challenges of compute capable memories, and
difficulty in system and software integration. Therefore, wide
deployment of in-/near-memory computing cannot be accomplished
without techniques that enable efficient mapping of data-intensive
applications to such devices, without sacrificing accuracy or
increasing hardware costs excessively. This book describes various
memory substrates amenable to in- and near-memory computing,
architectural approaches for designing efficient and reliable
computing devices, and opportunities for in-/near-memory
acceleration of different classes of applications.
