The Persistence of Non-Volatile Memory: Exploiting the Growing Design Space
Non-volatile memory technologies have a rich past dating back to the 1960s. Fairchild R&D Lab member Chih-tang Sah first noted in 1961 the ability of electric charge to remain on the surface of an electrical device for up to several days. By the 1970s the first...
Highlights From Persistent Programming In Real Life (PIRL) 2019
On July 22-23rd, UC San Diego’s Non-Volatile Systems Laboratory and the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) hosted the first Persistent Programming In Real Life (PIRL). PIRL is a new meeting devoted to gathering and sharing real-world, practical expertise...
Data management on non-volatile memory
In a recent blog post, Steve Swanson presented three milestones that mark the adoption path of non-volatile memory by applications. The next step in this path is tailoring fundamental protocols and algorithms for non-volatile memory. We illustrate this point using...
