Nvidia patents method for speeding up data access in computer memory

Nvidia describes a technique where software is prepared in advance to use special hardware helpers called memory accelerators. These helpers speed up how the computer reads and writes data by looking at how the data is arranged in memory.

Why it mattersThis is a technical improvement to how computers handle data, which could make future graphics cards and processors run slightly more efficiently.

In the filing’s own words

Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to compile computer program code to cause one or more memory accelerators to be used to access a plurality of memory locations. In at least one embodiment, computer program code is compiled to cause one or more memory accelerators to be used to access a plurality of memory locations based on, for example, an indication of a layout of the plurality of memory locations in the computer program code.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. One or more processors comprising processing circuitry to: compile computer program code to generate machine code executable to cause one or more memory accelerators to be used to access a plurality of memory locations based, at least in part, on an indication of a layout of the plurality of memory locations in the computer program code.
