Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to memory interface circuit allocation in a configurable spatial accelerator are described. In one embodiment, a configurable spatial accelerator (CSA) includes a plurality of processing elements; a plurality of request address file (RAF) circuits, and a circuit switched interconnect network between the plurality of processing elements and the RAF circuits. As a dataflow architecture, embodiments of CSA have a unique memory architecture where memory accesses are decoupled into an explicit request and response phase allowing pipelining through memory. Certain embodiments herein provide for an improved memory sub-system design via the improvements to allocation discussed herein.
