Toward timely, predictable and cost-effective data analytics

Renata Borovica-Gajic

Modern industrial, government, and academic organizations are collecting massive amounts of data at an unprecedented scale and pace. The ability to perform timely, predictable and cost-effective analytical processing of such large data sets in order to ext ...

Cheap Data Analytics using Cold Storage Devices

Anastasia Ailamaki, Raja Appuswamy, Renata Borovica-Gajic

Enterprise databases use storage tiering to lower capital and operational expenses. In such a setting, data waterfalls from an SSD-based high-performance tier when it is "hot" (frequently accessed) to a disk-based capacity tier and finally to a tape-based ...

HAVC-II - Idiap Private Cloud (Technical Inside-Out)

Virtualizing resources – servers, storage, networks – is now part of every IT departments life. The benefits of virtualization no longer need to be demonstrated and, when played upon in a large scale, provide both the saddle and spurs with which the Cloud ...

Idiap2015

Data storage is one of today’s fundamental services with companies, universities and research centers having the need of storing large amounts of data every day. Cloud storage services are emerging as strong alternative to local storage, allowing customers ...

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 ...

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 ...

Bistability of ferroelectric domain walls: Morphotropic boundary and strain effects

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Petr Yudin

The internal structure of neutral 180 degrees domain walls in perovskite-type ferroelectrics is studied in terms of Landau theory taking into account electromechanical coupling. The study is focused on the wall bistability, a factor of potential interest f ...

Diffraction-unlimited all-optical imaging and writing with a photochromic GFP

Marcel Leutenegger

Lens-based optical microscopy failed to discern fluorescent features closer than 200 nm for decades, but the recent breaking of the diffraction resolution barrier by sequentially switching the fluorescence capability of adjacent features on and off is maki ...
