Claim 16:
17. A system, comprising:
a high-bandwidth memory (HBM) apparatus that includes processing-in-memory (PIM) functionality;
wherein the HBM apparatus comprises a logic circuit comprising a first interface, and a second interface, the logic circuit receiving a first command and a second command from a host device using the first interface, wherein the first command has a first type and the second command has a second type; and
converting the first command to a first PIM command according to a first PIM protocol based on the first type;
converting the second command to a second PIM command according to a second PIM protocol based on the second type; and
initiating transmission of the first PIM command and the second PIM command to the PIM functionality using the second interface,
wherein the HBM apparatus stores a result of the first PIM command, and
wherein the logic circuit provides, to the host, information including an estimated completion time, relating to the host polling the HBM apparatus for a status of the first PIM command and receives a third command from the host using the first interface, based on the estimated completion time.
