Challenges of Memory Management on Modern NUMA Systems

Baptiste Joseph Eustache Lepers, Mohammad Dashti Rahmat Abadi

The latency of memory access times is hence non-uniform, because it depends on where the request originates and where it is destined to go. Such systems are referred to as nonuniform memory access (or NUMA). Current x86 NUMA systems are cache coherent (cal ...
