MEMORY MODULE WITH COMPUTATION CAPABILITY

Abstract:

A memory module having a plurality of memory chips, at least one controller (e.g., a central processing unit or special-purpose controller), and at least one interface device configured to communicate input and output data for the memory module. The input and output data bypasses at least one processor (e.g., a central processing unit) of a computing device in which the memory module is installed. And, the at least one interface device can be configured to communicate the input and output data to at least one other memory module in the computing device. Also, the memory module can be one module in a plurality of memory modules of a memory module system.
