Original Abstract Submitted
An accelerator is disclosed. The accelerator may include an on-chip memory to store a data from a database. The on-chip memory may include a first memory bank and a second memory bank. The first memory bank may store the data, which may include a first value and a second value. A computational engine may execute, in parallel, a command on the first value in the data and the command on the second value in the data in the on-chip memory. The on-chip memory may be configured to load a second data from the database into the second memory bank in parallel with the computation engine executing the command on the first value in the data and executing the command on the second value in the data.
