Abstract

A Processing-in-Memory (PIM) computing system and a memory controller provide improved memory traffic efficiency and improved PIM operation efficiency by increasing a burst length of a PIM operation relative to a general memory request. In embodiments, the increased burst length allows the PIM operation to be performed in units of pages, wherein a page is management unit of a memory used in the PIM operation.
