The reliability problem of modern flash-memory chips quickly deteriorates because of the nature of MLC chips. Although the vertical stacking of storage cells in 3D flash-memory chips dramatically increases the bit density, compared to 2D chips, it also results in severe disturbance problems. In this work, we propose to create sub-blocks in the MTD layer by considering different program disturb resistance...
Phase-change memory (PCM) is a potential candidate to replace flash memory in the storage design of mobile computing systems, but its energy consumption becomes a challenging issue when the multi-level cell (MLC) technology is adopted to reduce its unit cost. In contrast to the existing works that focus on reducing energy consumption at the hardware/device level, we propose an energy-aware memory...
The replacement of DRAM with non-volatile memory relies on solutions to resolve the wear leveling and slow write problems. Different from the past work in compiler-assisted optimization or joint DRAM-PCM management strategies, we explore a light-weighted software-controlled DRAM cache design for the non-volatile-memory-based main memory. The run-time overheads in the management of the DRAM cache is...
There is a growing demand to introduce more and more intelligence to storage devices in recent years, especially with the rapid increasing of hardware computing power. This paper targets on essential design issues in space utilization for dedup-based non-volatile phase-change memory (PCM). We explore the adoption of data duplication techniques to reduce potential data duplicates over PCM storage devices...
Phase change memory (PCM) is known for its potentials as main memory and as storage. In contrast to the past work, this work presents a PCM translation layer that considers how the main memory is used by the operating system together with the usage patterns of storage by trading their performance and reliability. In particular, a joint management scheme is proposed to improve the capability of PCM...
