Emerging Persistent Memory technologies (also PM, Non-Volatile DIMMs, Storage Class Memory or SCM) hold tremendous promise for accelerating popular data-management applications like in-memory databases. However, programmers now need to deal…

Several emerging non-volatile (NV) memory technologies are rising as interesting alternatives to build the Last-Level Cache (LLC). Their advantages, compared to SRAM memory, are higher density and lower static power, but write operations…

Phase-change memory (PCM) is a scalable and low latency non-volatile memory (NVM) technology that has been proposed to serve as storage class memory (SCM), providing low access latency similar to DRAM and often approaching or exceeding the…

Modern HPC workload managers and their careful tuning contribute to the high utilization of HPC clusters. However, due to inevitable uncertainty it is impossible to completely avoid node idleness. Although such idle slots are usually too…

Nowadays, we are to find out solutions to huge computing problems very rapidly. It brings the idea of parallel computing in which several machines or processors work cooperatively for computational tasks. In the past decades, there are a…

Spin-Transfer Torque RAM (STT-RAM) is widely considered a promising alternative to SRAM in the memory hierarchy due to STT-RAM's non-volatility, low leakage power, high density, and fast read speed. The STT-RAM's small feature size is…

Many high end and next generation computing systems to incorporated alternative memory technologies to meet performance goals. Since these technologies present distinct advantages and tradeoffs compared to conventional DDR* SDRAM, such as…

Non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies such as PCM, ReRAM and STT-RAM allow processors to directly write values to persistent storage at speeds that are significantly faster than previous durable media such as hard drives or SSDs. Many…

The byte-addressable Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) is a promising technology since it simultaneously provides DRAM-like performance, disk-like capacity, and persistency. The current NVM deployment is symmetric, where NVM devices are directly…

The ongoing convergence of HPC and cloud computing presents a fundamental challenge: HPC applications, designed for static and homogeneous supercomputers, are ill-suited for the dynamic, heterogeneous, and volatile nature of the cloud.…

Hybrid memory systems, comprised of emerging non-volatile memory (NVM) and DRAM, have been proposed to address the growing memory demand of applications. Emerging NVM technologies, such as phase-change memories (PCM), memristor, and 3D…

High Performance Computing (HPC) clouds are becoming an alternative to on-premise clusters for executing scientific applications and business analytics services. Most research efforts in HPC cloud aim to understand the cost-benefit of…

The utilization of paging for virtual machine (VM) memory management is the root cause of memory virtualization overhead. This paper shows that paging is not necessary in the hypervisor. In fact, memory fragmentation, which explains paging…

The emerging microservice/serverless-based cloud programming paradigm and the rising networking speeds leave the RPC stack as the predominant data center tax. Domain-specific hardware acceleration holds the potential to disentangle the…

Serverless Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms provide applications with resources that are highly elastic, quick to instantiate, accounted at fine granularity, and without the need for explicit runtime resource orchestration. This…

High-performance computing (HPC) is essential for tackling complex computational problems across various domains. As the scale and complexity of HPC applications continue to grow, the need for scalable systems and software architectures…

We propose a virtualization architecture for NoC-based reconfigurable systems. The motivation of this work is to develop a service-oriented architecture that includes Partial Reconfigurable Region as a Service (PRRaaS) and Processing…

Recent development in lightweight OS-level virtualization, containers, provides a potential solution for running HPC applications on the cloud platform. In this work, we focus on the impact of different layers in a containerized environment…

Non-volatile memory (NVM) promises persistent main memory that remains correct despite loss of power. This has sparked a line of research into algorithms that can recover from a system crash. Since caches are expected to remain volatile,…

DRAM-based main memory and its associated components increasingly account for a significant portion of application performance bottlenecks and power budget demands inside the computing ecosystem. To alleviate the problems of storage density…
