• System software for persistent memory (2014, methodology): “SCMFS, like PMFS and BPFS, is a file system that is optimized for PM [43].”
• Basic Performance Measurements of the Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory Module (2019, background): “Over the past decade, they have written a slew of papers proposing new programming models [4, 31], file systems [33, 34, 32, 30, 5, 13], libraries [2, 3, 25], and applications built to exploit the performance and flexibility that NVDIMMs promised to deliver.”
• Persistent B+-Trees in Non-Volatile Main Memory (2015, background): “As a result, there are widespread interests in the research community and in the industry to consider incorporating NVM technologies to substitute or complement DRAM as the main memory in future computer systems [5, 9, 36, 15, 26, 7, 31, 8, 33, 29, 20].”
• NOVA: A Log-structured File System for Hybrid Volatile/Non-volatile Main Memories (2016, methodology): “Recent NVMM-based file systems [21] [71] [73] bypass the DRAM page cache and access NVMM directly using a technique called Direct Access (DAX) or eXecute In Place (XIP), avoiding extra copies between NVMM and DRAM in the storage stack.”
• In-Memory Big Data Management and Processing: A Survey (2015, methodology): “BPFS [205], FRASH [219], ConquestFS [220], SCMFS [221], which also take advantage of NVRAM’s byte addressability.”
• NV-Tree: Reducing Consistency Cost for NVM-based Single Level Systems (2015, methodology): “However, existing CPU and memory controller may reorder memory writes which makes it non-trivial to develop consistent NVM-based systems and data structures, as demonstrated in previous works [44, 53, 58, 55, 14, 12, 18, 35, 22, 46, 10, 32, 17].”
• An Empirical Guide to the Behavior and Use of Scalable Persistent Memory (2019, background): “Custom NVM file systems have also been explored [60, 62, 38, 58, 54, 13, 21, 61, 68], as have more speculative hardware architectures [35, 34, 33, 42].”
