Adaptive table placement in NUMA architectures

Anastasia Ailamaki, Iraklis Psaroudakis

Techniques and solutions are provided for performing adaptive database table placement in a non-uniform memory access (NUMA) architecture. The adaptive table placement can occur in response to changing workloads on the NUMA nodes. For example, if a particu ...

Miss-Optimized Memory Systems: Turning Thousands of Outstanding Misses into Reuse Opportunities

Mikhail Asiatici

Even if Dennard scaling came to an end fifteen years ago, Moore' s law kept fueling an exponential growth in compute performance through increased parallelization. However, the performance of memory and, in particular, Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), ...
