Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure include techniques storing and retrieving data. In one embodiment, sub-matrices of data are stored as row slices and column slices. A fetch circuit determines if particular slices of one sub-matrix, when combined with corresponding slices of another sub-matrix, produce a zero result and need not be retrieved. In another embodiment, the present disclosure includes a memory circuit comprising memory banks and sub-banks. The sub-banks store slices of sub-matrices. A request moves between serially configured memory banks and slices in different sub-banks may be retrieved at the same time.
