We present LINQits, a flexible hardware template that can be mapped onto programmable logic or ASICs in a heterogeneous system-on-chip for a mobile device or server. Unlike fixed-function accelerators, LINQits accelerates a domain-specific query language called LINQ. LINQits does not provide coverage for all possible applications---however, existing applications (re-)written with LINQ in mind benefit extensively from hardware acceleration. Furthermore, the LINQits framework offers a graceful and transparent migration path from software to hardware.
There is an increasing need to bring machine learning to a wide diversity of hardware devices. Current frameworks rely on vendor-specific operator libraries and optimize for a n...
Many architects believe that major improvements in cost-energy-performance must now come from domain-specific hardware. This paper evaluates a custom ASIC---called a Tensor Proc...
