SUMMARY:MCHPC'18 Morning Keynote: Converging Storage and Memory
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\nMemory, NVRAM, Parallel Programming Languages, Libra
 ries, and Models, Workshop Reg Pass\n\nMCHPC'18 Morning Keynote: Convergin
 g Storage and Memory\n\nHady\n\nOrder of magnitude advances in non-volatil
 e memory density and performance are upon us bringing significant systems 
 level architecture opportunities. The NAND Memory transition to 3D and the
  introduction of QLC have recently increased NAND SSD storage density at a
  very rapid pace. Products featuring one terabit per die are available fro
 m Intel® Corporation allowing dense storage, for example one PByte in 1U. 
 This large improvement in density brings great value to systems, but also 
 increases the performance/capacity/cost gap between DRAM and storage withi
 n the long evolving memory and storage hierarchy. Intel® 3D XPoint™ Memory
 , with much higher performance than NAND and greater density than DRAM has
  entered the platform to address this gap - first as SSDs. These Intel® Op
 tane™ SSDs are in use within client and data center platforms as both fast
  storage volumes and as paged extensions to system memory delivering signi
 ficant application performance improvements. With low latency and fine gra
 ined addressability, this new memory can be accessed as Persistent Memory 
 (PM), avoiding the 4kByte block size and multiple microsecond storage stac
 k that accompany system storage. This Intel® Optane Data Center Persistent
  Memory is made possible through a series of hardware and software advance
 s. The resulting high capacity, high performance, persistent memory create
 s opportunities for rethinking algorithms to deliver much higher performan
 ce applications. This presentation will explain these new memory technolog
 ies, explore their impact on the computing system at the architecture and 
 solution level, and suggest areas of platform exploration relevant to the 
 HPC community.
