US Patent Issued to Advanced Micro Devices on Feb. 24 for "Pipelined matrix multiplication at a graphics processing unit" (California Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 24 -- United States Patent no. 12,561,393, issued on Feb. 24, was assigned to Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (Santa Clara, Calif.).

"Pipelined matrix multiplication at a graphics processing unit" was invented by Milind N. Nemlekar (San Diego).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A graphics processing unit (GPU) schedules recurrent matrix multiplication operations at different subsets of CUs of the GPU. The GPU includes a scheduler that receives sets of recurrent matrix multiplication operations, such as multiplication operations associated with a recurrent neural network (RNN). The multiple operations associated with, for example, an RNN layer are fused into a single kernel, which...
