September 12, 2024Computer programs mainly move data around. In the meantime, they do some computations on the data but the bulk of execution time and energy is spent moving data around. In computer jargon we say that applications tend to be memory bound: this means that memory is the main performance limiting factor. A plethora of popular applications are memory bound, such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning or Scientific Computing.
September 10, 2024Semidynamics is now recruiting various engineers of all levels at its Barcelona headquarters. The company's workforce has expanded from 40 employees to 90 this year, with a target of 120 by early 2025.

Roger Espasa, Semidynamics’ CEO, explained, “The traditional AI design uses three separate computing elements: a CPU, a GPU (Graphical Processor Unit) and an NPU (Neural Processor Unit) connected through a bus. This traditional architecture requires DMA-intensive programming, which is error-prone, slow, and energy-hungry plus the challenge of having to integrate three different software stacks and architectures. In addition, NPUs are fixed-function hardware that cannot adapt to future AI algorithms yet-to-be-invented.

La ISA RISC-V está de moda. Este fin de semana hemos visto cómo grandes compañías se suman a crear chips con ella, y no debería ser algo novedoso como tal, pero como se suele decir, la moda es la moda. Otras compañías con no tanto bombo y platillo llevan tiempo trabajando con esta ISA, como Semidynamics, que ha presentado su nueva Unidad Vectorial, la más grande y completa del mercado con la friolera de 2.048 bits.

At up to 2048bits of computation per cycle, Semidynamics says that its customisable Vector Unit is the largest available in the RISC-V market today, offering “unprecedented data handling”.
At the RISC-V Summit Europe 2023 (05 to 09 June) in Barcelona, Semidynamics highlights the customisable vector unit to accompany the company’s customisable 64-bit RISC-V cores. The Vector Unit complies with the RISC-V Vector Specification 1.0 and has additional, customisable features to enhance data handling capabilities. Semidynamics claimed that together they “set a new standard for data handling both in terms of unprecedented speed and volume”.
Semidynamics has equipped its Vector Unit with a high-performance, cross-vector-core network that provides all-to-all connectivity between the vector cores at high bandwidth, even for the very large, 32-vector core option. The cross-vector-core unit is used for specific instructions in the RISC-V standard that shuffle data between the different vector cores, such as vrgather, vslide, etc.
