Neural Storage: A New Paradigm of Elastic Memory
Prabuddha Chakraborty, Swarup Bhunia

TL;DR
Neural Storage introduces a brain-inspired, adaptive memory system that dynamically reorganizes data associations and structure during operation, significantly enhancing performance over traditional static memory models.
Contribution
This paper presents Neural Storage, a novel elastic memory paradigm that continuously adapts its structure and associations, inspired by human memory, to improve system performance.
Findings
Achieves an order of magnitude improvement in memory access performance.
Demonstrates flexible neural network organization for storage and retrieval.
Integrates formalized learning algorithms for dynamic memory management.
Abstract
Storage and retrieval of data in a computer memory plays a major role in system performance. Traditionally, computer memory organization is static - i.e., they do not change based on the application-specific characteristics in memory access behaviour during system operation. Specifically, the association of a data block with a search pattern (or cues) as well as the granularity of a stored data do not evolve. Such a static nature of computer memory, we observe, not only limits the amount of data we can store in a given physical storage, but it also misses the opportunity for dramatic performance improvement in various applications. On the contrary, human memory is characterized by seemingly infinite plasticity in storing and retrieving data - as well as dynamically creating/updating the associations between data and corresponding cues. In this paper, we introduce Neural Storage (NS), a…
