Abstract :
This paper presents an analysis on the integration of Neural Network hardware to PC and a solution to the cache coherence problem. An analysis is achieved by determining clock cycles in CPU operation compared to mixed CPU-ANN mode. Cache coherence problem is resolved by hardware-based protocol executed on an additional cache consistency controller
