An entangled quantum cache includes a quantum store that receives a plurality of quantum states and is configured to store and order the plurality of quantum states and to provide select ones of the stored and ordered plurality of quantum states to a quantum data output at a first desired time. A fidelity system is configured to determine a fidelity of at least some of the plurality of quantum states. A classical store is coupled to the fidelity system and configured to store classical data comprising the determined fidelity information and an index that associates particular ones of classical data with particular ones of the plurality of quantum states and to supply at least some of the classical data to a classical data output at a second desired time. A processor is connected to the classical store and determines the first time based on the index.

In various embodiments, a parallel processor includes a parallel processor module implemented within a first die and a memory system module implemented within a second die. The memory system module is coupled to the parallel processor module via an on-package link. The parallel processor module includes multiple processor cores and multiple cache memories. The memory system module includes a memory controller for accessing a DRAM. Advantageously, the performance of the parallel processor module can be effectively tailored for memory bandwidth demands that typify one or more application domains via the memory system module.

An apparatus comprising memory access circuitry to perform a tag-guarded memory access in response to a received target address and methods of operation of the same are disclosed. In the tag-guarded memory access a guard-tag retrieval operation seeks to retrieve a guard tag stored in association with a block of one or more memory locations comprising an addressed location identified by the received target address, and a guard-tag check operation compares an address tag associated with the received target address with the guard tag retrieved by the guard-tag retrieval operation. When the guard-tag retrieval operation is unsuccessful in retrieving the guard tag, a substitute guard tag value is stored as the guard tag in association with the block of one or more memory locations comprising the addressed location identified by the target address.

Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that generates address information for a plurality of planes in NAND memory, excludes column information from the address information, and sends a read command sequence to the NAND memory, wherein the read command sequence includes the address information. In one example, the technology also excludes plane confirm commands and busy cycles from the read command sequence.

Techniques are disclosed relating to an I/O agent circuit of a computer system. The I/O agent circuit may receive, from a peripheral component, a set of transaction requests to perform a set of read transactions that are directed to one or more of a plurality of cache lines. The I/O agent circuit may issue, to a first memory controller circuit configured to manage access to a first one of the plurality of cache lines, a request for exclusive read ownership of the first cache line such that data of the first cache line is not cached outside of the memory and the I/O agent circuit in a valid state. The I/O agent circuit may receive exclusive read ownership of the first cache line, including receiving the data of the first cache line. The I/O agent circuit may then perform the set of read transactions with respect to the data.

A computer system includes a physical memory having a first page table and a second page table, and an address translation module. The first page table includes primary page table entries, where each page table entry among the primary page table entries is configured to store a mapping of a virtual memory address to a physical memory address and auxiliary information. The second page table includes secondary page table entries each storing at least one further auxiliary information, where each secondary page table entry corresponds to a primary page table entry in the first page table. The address translation module is configured to, in response to receiving a request from a processor, walk through the first page table to identify a primary page table entry and consecutively identify a location of a corresponding secondary page table entry based on a location of the primary page table entry.

The present invention provides a control method of a flash memory controller, wherein the flash memory controller is configured to access a flash memory module, and the control method includes the steps of: receiving a settling command from a host device to configure a portion space of the flash memory module as a zoned namespace; receiving a write command from the host device to write data corresponding a first zone into a plurality of blocks of the flash memory module, wherein an access mode chose by the flash memory controller is determined based on a size of each zone and a size of each block.

Packet-processing circuitry including one or more flow caches whose contents are managed using a cache-entry replacement policy that is implemented based on one or more updatable counters maintained for each of the cache entries. In an example embodiment, the implemented policy enables the flow cache to effectively catch and keep elephant flows by giving to the caught elephant flows appropriate preference in terms of the cache dwell time, which can beneficially improve the overall cache-hit ratio and/or packet-processing throughput. Some embodiments can be used to implement an Open Virtual Switch (OVS). Some embodiments are advantageously capable of implementing the cache-entry replacement policy with very limited additional memory allocation.

A method for performing access management of a memory device with aid of a Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter (UART) connection and associated apparatus are provided. The method may include: utilizing a UART of a memory controller within the memory device to receive a set of intermediate commands corresponding to a set of operating commands through the UART connection between the memory device and a host device, wherein before sending the set of intermediate commands to the controller through the UART connection, the host device converts the set of operating commands into the set of intermediate commands; converting the set of intermediate commands into the set of operating commands according to a command mapping table; and accessing a non-volatile (NV) memory within the memory device with the set of operating commands for the host device, and sending a response to the host device through the UART connection.

A cache coherence bridge protocol provides an interface between a cache coherence protocol of a host processor and a cache coherence protocol of a processor-in-memory, thereby decoupling coherence mechanisms of the host processor and the processor-in-memory. The cache coherence bridge protocol requires limited change to existing host processor cache coherence protocols. The cache coherence bridge protocol may be used to facilitate interoperability between host processors and processor-in-memory devices designed by different vendors and both the host processors and processor-in-memory devices may implement coherence techniques among computing units within each processor. The cache coherence bridge protocol may support different granularity of cache coherence permissions than those used by cache coherence protocols of a host processor and/or a processor-in-memory. The cache coherence bridge protocol uses a shadow directory that maintains status information indicating an aggregate view of copies of data cached in a system external to a processor-in-memory containing that data.
