Abstract
A method for allocating on-chip memory of a neural processing unit is performed by one or more processors, and includes deallocating an allocated chunk in an on-chip memory area, which is finished with the use of the memory, and converting it into a cached chunk, receiving an on-chip memory allocation request for specific data, determining whether there is a cached chunk of one or more cached chunks that is allocable for the specific data, based on a comparison between a size of the specific data and the size of the one or more cached chunks, and based on a result of determining whether there is the cached chunk that is allocable for the specific data, allocating the specific data to a specific cached chunk of the one or more cached chunks, or allocating the specific data to at least a portion of the free chunk.
