Abstract
A computing device, including a hardware accelerator configured to receive a first matrix and receive a second matrix. The hardware accelerator may, for a plurality of partial matrix regions, in a first iteration, read a first submatrix of the first matrix and a second submatrix of the second matrix into a front-end processing area. The hardware accelerator may multiply the first submatrix by the second submatrix to compute a first intermediate partial matrix. In each of one or more subsequent iterations, the hardware accelerator may read an additional submatrix into the front end processing area. The hardware accelerator may compute an additional intermediate partial matrix as a product of the additional submatrix and a submatrix reused from an immediately prior iteration. The hardware accelerator may compute each partial matrix as a sum of two or more of the intermediate partial matrices and may output the plurality of partial matrices.
