contents This work introduces novel training and post-training compression schemes to reduce external memory access during transformer model inference. Additionally, a new control flow mechanism, called dynamic batching, and a novel buffer architecture, termed a two-direction accessible register file, further reduce external memory access while improving hardware utilization.
