A computing device includes a memory having one or more processing-in-memory units, and a host processor that includes one or more caches. The host processor receives a workload that accesses a page of the memory. Further, the host processor dynamically assigns different modes of operation to the page of the memory during different phases of execution of the workload. The different modes are assigned based on whether the workload is to be executed by the host processor, the one or more processing-in-memory units, or the host processor and the one or more processing-in-memory units during the different phases of execution. The host processor processes requests of the workload that access the page of the memory in accordance with the different modes of operation during the different phases of execution. Notably, the different modes of operation specify different caching policies for the page of the memory.
