NV-Heaps: making persistent objects fast and safe with next-generation, non-volatile memories
Joel Coburn,Adrian M. Caulfield,Akel Ameen D,Laura M. Grupp,Rajesh Gupta,Ranjit Jhala,Steven Swanson +6 more
TL;DR: A lightweight, high-performance persistent object system called NV-heaps is implemented that provides transactional semantics while preventing these errors and providing a model for persistence that is easy to use and reason about.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Understanding the Impact of Emerging Non-Volatile Memories on High-Performance, IO-Intensive Computing
Adrian M. Caulfield,Joel Coburn,Todor Mollov,Arup De,Akel Ameen D,Jiahua He,Arun Jagatheesan,Rajesh Gupta,Allan Snavely,Steven Swanson +9 more
TL;DR: It is found that paging to fast non-volatile memories is a viable option for some applications, providing an alternative to expensive, powerhungry DRAM for supporting scientific applications with large memory footprints.
Proceedings Article
Onyx: a protoype phase change memory storage array
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that even first-generation PCM SSDs can outperform flash-based arrays for the irregular (and frequently read-dominated) access patterns that define many of today's "killer" storage applications.
Book ChapterDOI
Extracting device fingerprints from flash memory by exploiting physical variations
Pravin Prabhu,Akel Ameen D,Laura M. Grupp,Wing-kei Yu,G. Edward Suh,Edwin C. Kan,Steven Swanson +6 more
TL;DR: Seven techniques for extracting unique signatures from NAND flash devices based on observable effects of process variation yield usable signatures that represent different trade-offs between speed, robustness, randomness, and wear imposed on the flash device.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Fulcrum: A Simplified Control and Access Mechanism Toward Flexible and Practical In-Situ Accelerators
Marzieh Lenjani,Patricia Gonzalez,Elaheh Sadredini,Shuangchen Li,Yuan Xie,Akel Ameen D,Sean Eilert,Mircea R. Stan,Kevin Skadron +8 more
TL;DR: The proposed lightweight access and control mechanism, Fulcrum, sequentially feeds data into the single-word ALU and enables operations with data dependencies and operations based on a predicate, and introduces a lightweight column-selection mechanism through shifting one-hot encoded values that enables independent column selection in each subarray.
