An IRAM architecture for image analysis and pattern recognition
Kang Yi, Josep Torrellas, Tianxi Huang · 2002
A new intelligent RAM (IRAM) architecture based on embedding DRAM memory and many simple processors on a chip is introduced. While the architecture can perform massively-parallel computation, it can also be used as plain DRAM. Some key parts of the architecture are discussed, and examples of image analysis algorithms that can run on it are given.
