Architecture, Simulation and Software Stack to Support Post-CMOS Accelerators: The ARCHYTAS Project

ARCHYTAS aims to design and evaluate non-conventional hardware accelerators, in particular, optoelectronic, volatile and non-volatile processing-in-memory, and neuromorphic, to tackle the power, efficiency, and scalability bottlenecks of AI with an emphasis on defense use cases (e.g., autonomous vehicles, surveillance drones, maritime and space platforms). In this paper, we present the system architecture and software stack that ARCHYTAS will develop to integrate and support those accelerators, as well as the simulation software needed for early prototyping of the full system and its components.

Modeling and Simulating Emerging Memory Technologies: A Tutorial

Non-volatile Memory (NVM) technologies present a promising alternative to traditional volatile memories such as SRAM and DRAM. Due to the limited availability of real NVM devices, simulators play a crucial role in architectural exploration and hardware-software co-design. This tutorial presents a simulation toolchain through four detailed case studies, showcasing its applicability to various domains of system design, including hybrid main-memory and cache, compute-in-memory, and wear-leveling design. These case studies provide the reader with practical insights on customizing the toolchain for their specific research needs. The source code is open-sourced.
