Abstract:

Storage Class Memory (SCM) technologies, which has characteristics of both a storage device, with its non-volatilty, and conventional DRAM, with fast, byte addressability, are currently being developed by all major semiconductor companies. Interest in making use of SCM-based systems is on the rise as exemplified by research results and product announcements by major firms such as Intel and HP.

In this talk, I will give an overview of the developments in the so-called next generation new memory technology arena, briefly discussing the characteristics of the various next generation memory technologies that are in development. Then, I will touch on various system software research issues that have been explored in regards to these new types of memory with a focus on its use as storage. In so doing, I will also present some of the work that has been conducted by our NECSST team at Hongik University.
