• Memory Errors in Modern Systems: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly (2015, background): “published an expanded study on Google’s server fleet, as well as two IBM Blue Gene clusters [16], Sridharan and Liberty presented a study of DRAM failures in a high-performance computing system [33], and El-Sayed et al.”
• Addressing failures in exascale computing (2014, background): “Recent studies have shown that the error rate of DRAM is far higher than the particle-strike soft errors, indicating that hard faults in either the peripheral or signaling circuits are the main cause of problems (Schroeder et al., 2009; Hwang et al., 2012; Sridharan and Liberty, 2012).”
