As a hardware mechanism for facilitating intra-process memory isolation, Intel Memory
Protection Keys (MPK) has been leveraged to efficiently improve the isolation, security, or …

Whole-system persistence promises simplified application deployment and near-
instantaneous recovery. This can be implemented using single-level store (SLS) through …

Log-based data management systems use storage as if it were an append-only medium,
transforming random writes into sequential writes, which delivers significant benefits when …

This paper revisits the usage of DRAM cache in DRAM-PM heterogeneous memory file
systems. With a comprehensive analysis of existing file systems with cache-based and DAX …

Non-volatile memory (NVM) is a new byte-addressable storage technology that is part of the
processor's memory hierarchy. NVM is often exposed to applications via an in-kernel file …

Nonvolatile memory (NVM) is a class of memory that exhibits persistence, similar to
secondary memory, while providing access speeds at least an order of two magnitudes …

The availability of non-volatile main memory (NVMM) has started a new era for storage
systems and NVMM specific file systems can support extremely high data and metadata …

Virtual memory, specifically paging, is undergoing significant innovation due to being
challenged by new demands from modern workloads. Recent work has demonstrated an …

The carbon footprint of software activities is determined by embodied and operational
emissions of hardware resources. This paper presents cMemento, a concept that enables …

Since the inception of computing, we have been reliant on CPU-powered architectures.
However, today this reliance is challenged by manufacturing limitations (CMOS scaling) …
