Analog in memory cores



With the spead of data analytics on the edge, more and more complex machine learning algorithms are being deployed on low power devices. As these algorithms require huge amount of almost non-changing data, the use of non-volatile memories seems to be a solution to the huge leakage induced by SRAM memories.

In this reseach line, we propose to explore the integration of emerging memory technologies in computing architecture and how its affect applications running on such platforms.
