Reducing power consumption has become a major challenge in the design and operation of today's computer systems. This chapter describes different techniques addressing this c...
Main memory latencies have always been a concern for system performance. Given that reads are on the critical path for CPU progress, reads must be prioritized over writes. However...
Phase change memory (PCM) recently has emerged as a promising technology to meet the fast growing demand for large capacity memory in modern computer systems. In particular, multi...

Transactional Memory (TM) is being studied widely as a new technique for synchronizing concurrent accesses to shared memory data structures for use in multi-core systems. Much of ...
This paper describes a checkpointing mechanism destined for Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems with speculative prefetching. Speculation is a general technique involving predi...
