An accelerator module includes a plurality of memories and a controller. The controller includes a plurality of memory controllers, a plurality of processing units, and a managing circuit. The plurality of memory controllers and the plurality of memories form a plurality of memory sub-channels. The plurality of processing units perform computational operations on a plurality of data stored in or read from the plurality of memories. The managing circuit redistributes tasks performed by the plurality of processing units or changes connections between the plurality of memory controllers and the plurality of processing units in response to a first memory sub-channel and a first processing unit being in a heavy-workload state.

Accelerator module and computing system including the same

A memory includes: a request register configured to receive a first signal including a requester identifier using a first protocol from a host and configured to output a first priority corresponding to the requester identifier; a checker module configured to receive a second signal including a command and a request type from the host and using a second protocol that is different than the first protocol, where the checker module is configured to receive the first priority from the request register, and where the checker module is configured to determine a second priority of the command based on the first priority and the request type; a command generator configured to generate an internal command for memory operation based on the command; and a memory controller configured to schedule the internal command in a command queue based on the second priority.
