dc.description.abstractThe von Neumann bottleneck is imposed due to the explosion of data transfers and emerging data-intensive applications in heterogeneous system architectures. The conventional computation approach of transferring data to CPU is no longer suitable especially with the cost it imposes. Given the increasing storage capacities, moving extensive data volumes between storage and computation cannot scale up. Hence, high-performance data processing mechanisms are needed, which may be achieved by bringing computation closer to data. Gathering insights where data is stored helps deal with energy efficiency, low latency, as well as security. Storage bus bandwidth is also saved when only computation results are delivered to the host memory. Various applications, including database acceleration, machine learning, Artificial Intelligence (AI), offloading (compression/encryption/encoding) and others can perform better and become more scalable if the “move process to data” paradigm is applied. Embedding processing engines inside Solid-State Drives (SSDs), transforming them to Computational Storage Devices (CSDs), provides the needed data processing solution. In this paper, we review the prior art on Near Data Processing (NDP) with focus on In-Storage Computing (ISC), identifying main challenges and potential gaps for future research directions.en_US
