Abstract

Example near-memory computing systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a system includes a host command processing system and a computational engine associated with a solid-state drive. In some situations, the computational engine includes multiple versatile processing unit slices coupled to one another. The multiple versatile processing unit slices are configured to perform different tasks in parallel with one another. The system also includes a host direct memory access module configured to access memory devices independently of a central processing unit.
