A Customized Memory-aware Architecture for Biological Sequence Alignment
Nasrin Akbari, Mehdi Modarressi, Alireza Khadem
Sequence alignment is a fundamental process in computational biology which identifies regions of similarity in biological sequences. With the exponential growth in the volume of da…
DX100: A Programmable Data Access Accelerator for Indirection
Alireza Khadem, Kamalavasan Kamalakkannan, Zhenyan Zhu +8
Indirect memory accesses frequently appear in applications where memory bandwidth is a critical bottleneck. Prior indirect memory access proposals, such as indirect prefetchers, ru…
PIM Is All You Need: A CXL-Enabled GPU-Free System for Large Language Model Inference
Yufeng Gu, Alireza Khadem, Sumanth Umesh +5
Large Language Model (LLM) inference uses an autoregressive manner to generate one token at a time, which exhibits notably lower operational intensity compared to earlier Machine L…
Multi-Dimensional Vector ISA Extension for Mobile In-Cache Computing
Alireza Khadem, Daichi Fujiki, Hilbert Chen +4
In-cache computing technology transforms existing caches into long-vector compute units and offers low-cost alternatives to building expensive vector engines for mobile CPUs. Unfor…
Vector-Processing for Mobile Devices: Benchmark and Analysis
Alireza Khadem, Daichi Fujiki, Nishil Talati +2
Vector processing has become commonplace in today's CPU microarchitectures. Vector instructions improve performance and energy which is crucial for resource-constraint mobile devic…
CoDR: Computation and Data Reuse Aware CNN Accelerator
Alireza Khadem, Haojie Ye, Trevor Mudge
Computation and Data Reuse is critical for the resource-limited Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) accelerators. This paper presents Universal Computation Reuse to exploit weight s…
