1. A system for an artificial neural network (ANN), the system comprising:
a processor configured to output a memory control signal indicating an ANN data locality;
a main memory in which data of an ANN model corresponding to the ANN data locality is stored; and
a memory controller configured to receive the memory control signal from the processor and to control the main memory based on the memory control signal.
