Tech war: Huawei unveils algorithm that could cut China’s reliance on foreign memory chips https://www.scmp.com/tech/tech-war/article/3321578/tech-war-huawei-unveils-algorithm-could-cut-chinas-reliance-foreign-memory-chips

South China Morning Post scmp.com Published: 5:00pm, 12 Aug 2025 - Chinese tech firms are leveraging software improvements to compensate for limited access to advanced hardware.

Huawei Technologies has unveiled a software tool designed to accelerate inference in large artificial intelligence models, an advancement that could help China reduce its reliance on expensive high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips.
Unified Cache Manager (UCM) is an algorithm that allocates data according to varying latency requirements across different types of memories – including ultra-fast HBM, standard dynamic random access memory and solid-state drive – thereby enhancing inference efficiency, according to Huawei executives at the Financial AI Reasoning Application Landing and Development Forum in Shanghai on Tuesday.

Zhou Yuefeng, vice-president and head of Huawei’s data storage product line, said UCM demonstrated its effectiveness during tests, reducing inference latency by up to 90 per cent and increasing system throughput as much as 22-fold.

The move exemplifies how Chinese tech firms are leveraging software improvements to compensate for limited access to advanced hardware. Earlier this year, Chinese start-up DeepSeek captured global attention by developing powerful AI models with constrained chip resources.

Huawei plans to open-source UCM in September, first in its online developer community and later to the broader industry. The initiative could help China lessen its dependence on foreign-made HBM chips, a market mostly controlled by South Korea’s SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics, as well as the US supplier Micron Technology.

HBM is a stacked, high-speed, low-latency memory that provides substantial data throughput to AI chips, enabling optimal performance. The global HBM market is projected to nearly double in revenue this year, reaching US$34 billion, and is expected to hit US$98 billion by 2030, largely driven by the AI boom, according to consulting firm Yole Group.

www.scmp.com - Heightened US chip export controls have prompted Chinese AI and chip companies to collaborate.

Chinese chipmaker Sophgo has adapted its compute card to power DeepSeek’s reasoning model, underscoring growing efforts by local firms to develop home-grown artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure and reduce dependence on foreign chips amid tightening US export controls.
Sophgo’s SC11 FP300 compute card successfully passed verification, showing stable and effective performance in executing the reasoning tasks of DeepSeek’s R1 model in tests conducted by the China Telecommunication Technology Labs (CTTL), the company said in a statement on Monday.

A compute card is a compact module that integrates a processor, memory and other essential components needed for computing tasks, often used in applications like AI.

CTTL is a research laboratory under the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, an organisation affiliated with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
