They consist of a grid of processing elements, with each element multiplying two values and adding the result into an accumulated sum.</p> <p>The two dataflow organizations considered here are sum-stationary, where the sum remains in the same processing element while the multiplicands stream past, and weight-stationary, where one of the multiplicands stays stationary while the other multiplicand and the sum stream past.</p>
