Abstract
A hardware accelerator can store, in multiple memory storage areas in one or more memories on the accelerator, input data for each processing time step of multiple processing time steps for processing sequential inputs to a machine learning model. For each processing time step, the following is performed. The accelerator can access a current value of a counter stored in a register within the accelerator to identify the processing time step. The accelerator can determine, based on the current value of the counter, one or more memory storage areas that store the input data for the processing time step. The accelerator can facilitate access of the input data for the processing time step from the one or more memory storage areas to at least one processor coupled to the one or more memory storage areas. The accelerator can increment the current value of the counter stored in the register.
