Flash-aware Database Transactions

Radu Ioan Stoica

Over the past 40 years, hard disks, the traditional building block of storage systems, have become increasingly slower when compared to the other system components such as the main memory and the CPU. Hard disks face mechanical constraints that cause their ...

Ultra-Low Power Multicore Architecture For Parallel Biomedical Signal Processing

David Atienza Alonso, Andreas Peter Burg, Jeremy Hugues-Felix Constantin, Ahmed Yasir Dogan

A multi-core architecture with ultra-low power consumption is needed for a wide variety of applications, especially in the bio-medical domain. In this patent, an ultra-low power multi-core architecture is presented: it is composed of one or more cores, sev ...

BF-Tree: Approximate Tree Indexing

Anastasia Ailamaki, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis

The increasing volume of time-based generated data and the shift in storage technologies suggest that we might need to reconsider indexing. Several workloads - like social and service monitoring - often include attributes with implicit clustering because o ...

High Sum-Rate Three-Write and Nonbinary WOM Codes

Write-once memory (WOM) is a storage medium with memory elements, called cells, which can take on q levels. Each cell is initially in level 0 and can only increase its level. A t-write WOM code is a coding scheme, which allows one to store t messages to th ...

Polarization-multiplexed encoding at nanometer scales

Carlos Alberto Macias Romero

Optical data storage was developed using binary encoding primarily due to signal to noise ratio considerations. We report on a multiplexing method that allows a seven fold storage increase, per storage layer, per side, and propose one that can yield theore ...

A (Nearly) Free Lunch

Xavier Jimenez

NAND flash is a key storage technology in modern computing systems. Without it, many devices would probably not exist today or would at least not benefit from as many features. The very large success of this technology motivated massive efforts to scale it ...

Using Managed Runtime Systems to Tolerate Holes in Wearable Memories

James Richard Larus

New memory technologies, such as phase-change memory (PCM), promise denser and cheaper main memory, and are expected to displace DRAM. However, many of them experience permanent failures far more quickly than DRAM. DRAM mechanisms that handle permanent fai ...

Automatic Synthesis of Out-of-Core Algorithms

Viktor Kuncak, Christoph Koch, Ioannis Klonatos, Andres Nötzli, Andrej Spielmann

We present a system for the automatic synthesis of efficient algorithms specialized for a particular memory hierarchy and a set of storage devices. The developer provides two independent inputs: 1) an algorithm that ignores memory hierarchy and external st ...

X-Stream: Edge-centric Graph Processing using Streaming Partitions

Willy Zwaenepoel, Amitabha Roy, Ivo Mihailovic

X-Stream is a system for processing both in-memory and out-of-core graphs on a single shared-memory machine. While retaining the scatter-gather programming model with state stored in the vertices, X-Stream is novel in (i) using an edge-centric rather than ...

Impact of Storage on the Efficiency and Prices in Real-Time Electricity Markets

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Dan-Cristian Tomozei, Nicolas Gabriel Gast

We study the effect of energy-storage systems in dynamic real-time electricity markets. We consider that demand and renewable generation are stochastic, that real-time production is affected by ramping constraints, and that market players seek to selfishly ...
