Medium GrooveSquid.com (original content) Medium Difficulty Summary
The proposed neural network architecture addresses the need for on-chip processing of data in high-throughput and low-latency applications. The requirement for all parameters to be stored on-chip and the need for custom/reconfigurable logic to meet latency and bandwidth constraints are discussed. The paper shows that many scientific neural network applications must run fully on chip, highlighting the importance of codesigning hardware with software.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Scientists are working on a new way to process data using special types of computer chips. These chips need to be able to handle lots of information quickly and efficiently. To do this, all the necessary information needs to fit on the chip itself. The paper talks about how scientists are designing custom chips to meet these demands.
