    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms to facilitate Bitcoin mining operations which support version rolling. In an embodiment, Bitcoin mining circuitry comprises a first scheduler, a first digest, a second scheduler and a second digest arranged in a pipeline configuration. Hash circuitry calculates a first plurality of hashes each based on first bits of a Merkle root, and on a different respective identifier of a Bitcoin protocol version. The first scheduler generates first message schedules each based on second bits of the Merkle root, and on a different respective nonce value. In another embodiment, the first scheduler successively provides the first message schedules to the first digest, wherein, for each such providing of one of the first message schedules, the first digest, second scheduler and second digest successively generate second hashes each based on the provided one of the first message schedules, and on a different respective one of the first hashes.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor is to store a membrane potential of a neural unit of a neural network; and calculate, at a particular time-step of the neural network, a change to the membrane potential of the neural unit occurring over multiple time-steps that have elapsed since the last time-step at which the membrane potential was updated, wherein each of the multiple time-steps that have elapsed since the last time-step is associated with at least one input to the neural unit that affects the membrane potential of the neural unit.
