Abstract

Embodiments relate to address generation in an active memory device that includes memory and a processing element. An aspect includes a method for address generation in the active memory device. The method includes reading a base address value and an offset address value from a register file group of the processing element. The processing element determines a virtual address based on the base address value and the offset address value. The processing element translates the virtual address into a physical address and accesses a location in the memory based on the physical address.
