Serial dependence under memory load

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

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 ...

Preventing Use-After-Free Attacks with Fast Forward Allocation

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 ...

Perovskite Flash Memory with a Single-Layer Nanofloating Gate

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Peng Gao, Tom Theodorus Antonius Lummen, Peng Gao, Hobeom Kim

Here we use triple-cation metal-organic halide perovskite single crystals for the transistor channel of a flash memory device. Moreover, we design and demonstrate a 10 nm thick single-layer nanofloating gate. It consists of a ternary blend of two organic s ...

A Novel Centralized Strategy for Coded Caching with Non-uniform Demands

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Saeid Sahraei, Pierre Victor Xavier Quinton

Despite significant progress in the caching literature concerning the worst case and uniform average case regimes, the algorithms for caching with nonuniform demands are still at a basic stage and mostly rely on simple grouping and memory-sharing technique ...

Design Guidelines for High-Performance SCM Hierarchies

Babak Falsafi, Edouard Bugnion, Javier Picorel Obando, Alexandros Daglis, Mark Johnathon Sutherland, Dmitrii Ustiugov

With emerging storage-class memory (SCM) nearing commercialization, there is evidence that it will deliver the much-anticipated high density and access latencies within only a fewfactors of DRAM. Nevertheless, the latency-sensitive nature of memory-residen ...

Efficient Adaptive Hard Real-time Multi-processor Systems

Stefanos Skalistis

Modern computing systems are based on multi-processor systems, i.e. multiple cores on the same chip. Hard real-time systems are required to perform particular tasks within certain amount of time; failure to do so characterises an unaccepted behavior. Hard ...

FloDB: Unlocking Memory in Persistent Key-Value Stores

Rachid Guerraoui, Mihail Igor Zablotchi, Vasileios Trigonakis, Oana Maria Balmau

Log-structured merge (LSM) data stores enable to store and process large volumes of data while maintaining good performance. They mitigate the I/O bottleneck by absorbing updates in a memory layer and transferring them to the disk layer in sequential batch ...

Enabling efficient OS paging for main-memory OLTP databases

Anastasia Ailamaki, Radu Ioan Stoica

Even though main memory is becoming large enough to fit most OLTP databases, it may not always be the best option. OLTP workloads typically exhibit skewed access patterns where some records are hot (frequently accessed) but many records are cold (infrequen ...
