Abstract
Systems and techniques for neuromorphic accelerator multitasking are described herein. A neuron address translation unit (NATU) may receive a spike message. Here, the spike message includes a physical neuron identifier (PNID) of a neuron causing the spike. The NATU may then translate the PNID into a network identifier (NID) and a local neuron identifier (LNID). The NATU locates synapse data based on the NID and communicates the synapse data and the LNID to an axon processor.
