Early Measurements of Intel’s 3DXPoint Persistent Memory DIMMs
Editors Note: This is the second of two independent posts on the performance of Intel’s new memory technology. For the last ten years, researchers have been anticipating the arrival of commercially available, scalable non-volatile main memory (NVMM) technologies...
Using Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory for In-memory Graph Analytics
Intel Optane DC persistent memory modules are like DRAM in form factor and can be configured as volatile main memory, persistent memory or as a combination.

Tackling the Pipeline Problem in the Architecture Research Community
Computer architecture is an important and exciting field of computer science, which enables many other fields (eg. big-data processing, machine learning, quantum computing, and so on). For those of us who pursued computer architecture as a career, this is well...
Three Other Models of Computer System Performance: Part 2
With two blog posts, we argue for more use of simple models beyond Amdahl’s Law. Part 1 previously discussed Bottleneck Analysis and Little’s Law, while this post (Part 2) presents the M/M/1 Queue.
