Two design models have surged: analog in-memory-computing (AIMC) and digital in-memory-computing (DIMC), offering a different design space in terms of accuracy, efficiency and dataflow flexibility. This paper targets the fair comparison and benchmarking of both approaches to guide future designs, through a.) an overview of published architectures; b.) an analytical cost model for energy and throughput; c.) scheduling of workloads on a variety of modeled IMC architectures for end-to-end network efficiency analysis, offering valuable workload-hardware co-design insights.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.18335v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.18335v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"benchmarking-and-modeling-of-analog-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/KULeuven-MICAS/zigzag-imc","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null},{"paper_slug":"benchmarking-and-modeling-of-analog-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/ZigZag-Project/zigzag","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":{"status":"ok","spdx":"MIT"}}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
