The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...

In a computer, the entire memory can be separated into different levels based on access time and capacity. Figure 1 shows different levels in the memory hierarchy. Smaller and faster memories are kept ...

In this video from DDN booth at SC18, Andrey Kudryavtsev from Intel presents: Reimagining the Datacenter Memory and Storage Hierarchy. Intel Optane DC persistent memory represents a new class of ...

Exponential increases in data and demand for improved performance to process that data has spawned a variety of new approaches to processor design and packaging, but it also is driving big changes on ...
