Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a memory hierarchy for a system-in-package. An example memory hierarchy is connectable to a processor via a memory management unit arranged for translating a virtual address sent by the processor into a physical address. The memory hierarchy has a data cache memory and a memory structure having at least a L1 memory array comprising at least one cluster. The memory structure comprises a first data access controller arranged for managing one or more banks of scratchpad memory of at least one of the clusters of at least the L1 memory array, comprising a data port for receiving at least one physical address and arranged for checking at run-time, for each received physical address, bits of the physical address to see if the physical address is present in the one or more banks of the at least one cluster of at least the L1 memory array.

Abstract: A method is provided for calculating a performance of a photovoltaic module comprising at least a first photovoltaic cell and a second photovoltaic cell. The method comprises calculating a heat flow between the first photovoltaic cell and the second photovoltaic cell using a first thermal equivalent circuit of the first photovoltaic cell and a second thermal equivalent circuit of the second photovoltaic cell, wherein at least one node of the first thermal equivalent circuit is connected to a corresponding node of the second thermal equivalent circuit by a thermal coupling resistance. The method may be used for calculating the influence of spatial and temporal variations in the operation conditions on the performance, such as the energy yield, of a photovoltaic module or a photovoltaic system.

Abstract: A system and method of simulating device aging based on a digital waveform representative of a workload of an electronic device are disclosed. In one aspect, the method comprises grouping contiguous sets of cycles into segments, each set corresponding to a segment. Each segment has values for a combination of segment parameters that are unique from each of the other segments and a start point that is separated from a start point of an adjacent segment by a pre-defined distance criterion. Grouping the sets into the segments comprises, for each segment: sampling one or more sequential cycles of the workload, generating the segment based on the sampled contiguous cycles having a period exceeding a threshold period, and determining the values for the combination of segment parameters. The method further comprises applying an aging model to the segments to simulate the aging. The segments are a representation of the digital waveform.

Abstract: A method for generating/updating a database of current-voltage characteristic curves is disclosed. This method includes simulating for at least one combination of a topology of a photovoltaic cell group, an internal cell temperature(s) and a cell irradiation(s), a model of the photovoltaic cell group to provide a representative current-voltage characteristic curve, and clustering the current-voltage characteristic curves to identify at least one plurality of similar current-voltage characteristic curves. The method also includes generating a many-to-one mapping in the database to map query requests corresponding to each of the at least one plurality of similar current-voltage characteristic curves onto a single representative current-voltage characteristic curve for that plurality, each query request identifying a topology of a photovoltaic cell group, at least one internal temperature for the photovoltaic cells in the photovoltaic cell group and at least one cell irradiation for the photovoltaic cells in the photovoltaic cell group.

Abstract: A method and hardware system for mapping an input map of a convolutional neural network layer to an output map are disclosed. An array of processing elements are interconnected to support unidirectional dataflows through the array along at least three different spatial directions. Each processing element is adapted to combine values of dataflows along different spatial directions into a new value for at least one of the supported dataflows. For each data entry in the output map, a plurality of products from pairs of weights of a selected convolution kernel and selected data entries in the input map is provided and arranged into a plurality of associated partial sums. Products associated with a same partial sum are accumulated on the array and accumulated on the array into at least one data entry in the output map.

Abstract: A PV module is described with an array of PV cells whereby the module is reconfigurable, allowing different configurations to be applied after installation and during operation, i.e. at run-time. The run time configuration of the module has controllable devices. The main controllable devices are any of (individually or in combination): a) switches which determine the parallel/series connections of the cells as well as hybrid cases also. b) switches between the cells and local dc/dc converters and/or among the DC/DC converters; c) actively controlled bypass diodes placed in order to allow excess current to flow in the occurrence of a mismatch.
