Micro-architectural analysis of in-memory OLTP: Revisited

Anastasia Ailamaki, Danica Porobic, Utku Sirin

Micro-architectural behavior of traditional disk-based online transaction processing (OLTP) systems has been investigated extensively over the past couple of decades. Results show that traditional OLTP systems mostly under-utilize the available micro-archi ...

Micro-architectural Analysis of Database Workloads

Utku Sirin

Database workloads have significantly evolved in the past twenty years. Traditional database systems that are mainly used to serve Online Transactional Processing (OLTP) workloads evolved into specialized database systems that are optimized for particular ...

Low-Cost Side-Channel Secure Standard 6T-SRAM-Based Memory With a 1% Area and Less Than 5% Latency and Power Overheads

Robert Giterman

Side-channel attacks constitute a concrete threat to IoT systems-on-a-chip (SoCs). Embedded memories implemented with 6T SRAM macrocells often dominate the area and power consumption of these SoCs. Regardless of the computational platform, the side-channel ...

Preventing Use-After-Free Attacks with Fast Forward Allocation

Jungwon Lim, Sanidhya Kashyap

Memory-unsafe languages are widely used to implement critical systems like kernels and browsers, leading to thousands of memory safety issues every year. A use-after-free bug is a temporal memory error where the program accidentally visits a freed memory l ...

Software Support for Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) Programming

David Teksen Aksun

Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) is an emerging type of memory device that provides fast, byte-addressable, and high-capacity durable storage. NVM sits on the memory bus and allows durable data structures designs similar to the in-memory equivalent ones. Expensiv ...

Serial dependence under memory load

Michael Herzog, Ayberk Ozkirli, Gizay Ceylan, David Pascucci, Yury Markov, Natalia Tiurina

Perceptual decisions are biased towards previous stimuli, a phenomenon known as serial dependence. However, the mechanisms of this bias are unknown. For example, it is debated whether serial dependence reflects a perceptual bias or interference of prior st ...

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), ...

Testing two competing hypotheses for Eurasian jays' caching for the future

Johanni Michael Brea

Previous research reported that corvids preferentially cache food in a location where no food will be available or cache more of a specific food in a location where this food will not be available. Here, we consider possible explanations for these prospect ...

Access pattern based optimization of memory access

Anastasia Ailamaki, Georgios Psaropoulos

A method for optimizing memory access for database operations is provided. The method may include identifying an access pattern associated with a database operation. The access pattern may include data required to perform the database operation. One or mor ...

Distributed Computing with Modern Shared Memory

Mihail Igor Zablotchi

In this thesis, we revisit classic problems in shared-memory distributed computing through the lenses of (1) emerging hardware technologies and (2) changing requirements. Our contributions consist, on the one hand, in providing a better understanding of th ...

Gain-Cell Embedded DRAMs: Modeling and Design Space

Andreas Peter Burg, Andrea Bonetti, Adam Shmuel Teman, Robert Giterman

Among the different types of DRAMs, gain-cell embedded DRAM (GC-eDRAM) is a compact, low-power and CMOS-compatible alternative to conventional SRAM. GC-eDRAM achieves high memory density as it relies on a storage cell that can be implemented with as few as ...
