Abstract
A design structure embodied in a machine readable medium used in a design process includes computational memory device having an array of memory cells arranged in rows and columns, and a pair of read word lines associated with each row of the array. The array is configured to implement, for a given cycle, either a read operation of data contained in a single selected row, or one of a plurality of different bit wise logical operations on data contained in multiple selected rows.
