Samsung has announced that it’s the first company to develop a type of memory called HBM-PIM (high bandwidth memory-processing in memory). It features AI to increase speeds in applications such as HPC systems, data centers, and other AI-related solutions. Presently, most memory is based on the Von Neumann architecture. Introduced in 1945, it uses sequential processing, which can result in bottlenecks and higher power usage. HBM-PIM places a DRAM-optimized AI engine inside the memory unit to help avoid this, potentially doubling performance and reducing power usage by 30 percent. Samsung says that this technology can be incorporated into existing systems because it does...
