Public cloud providers seek to meet stringent performance requirements and low hardware
cost. A key driver of performance and cost is main memory. Memory pooling promises to …

Scalable nonvolatile memory DIMMs will finally be commercially available with the release
of the Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory Module (or just" Optane DC PMM"). This new …

Prior work shows that Rowhammer attacks---which flip bits in DRAM via frequent activations
of the same row (s)---are viable. Adversaries typically mount these attacks via instruction …

Datacenter operations today provide a plethora of new queueing and scheduling problems.
The notion of a “job” has become more general and multi-dimensional. The ways in which …

Today's cloud DRAM lacks strong isolation primitives, highlighted by Rowhammer bit flips.
Rowhammer poses an increasing threat to cloud security/reliability, given (1) DRAM …

Automatic vectorization is an important technique for compilers to improve the parallelism of
programs. With the widespread usage of SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) extensions …

The slowing and forecasted end of Moore's Law have forced designers to look beyond
simply adding transistors, encouraging them to employ other unused resources as a manner …

Chiplet-based systems have recently received much attention for scaling-up processing
power in HPC systems due to their high energy efficiency and low cost manufacturing; …

In data-intensive workloads, data placement and memory management are inherently
difficult: the programmer and the operating system have to choose between (combinations …

We consider online scheduling on unrelated (heterogeneous) machines in a speed-
oblivious setting, where an algorithm is unaware of the exact job-dependent processing …
