  • Abstract
    This work studies memories with the goal of exploring the concept of in-memory computing. Our point of departure is the 1972 classical study on logical arrays by Akers. We demonstrate a number of new ways for these arrays to simultaneously store information and perform logical operations. We first generalize these arrays to non-binary alphabets. We then show how a special structure of these arrays can both store values and output a sorted version of them. In addition we show how the array can tolerate or detect errors in the stored information.
