Original Kurzfassung:
In this talk, I will first bold the urgent need of new architectures for big data processing. The main
tracks taken in my research lab (HPCAN) to store and process large amounts of data are then
discussed. I will then focus on the storage architectures and talk about alternative non-volatile
memory technologies and present one of our recent works on prolonging the lifetime of Phasechange
main memories. One of the main drawbacks with PCMs is their short write endurance. In
this talk, I will introduce a simple shift-based technique to exploit multiple bit storage capability of
PCMs to improve the lifetime of the whole memory.
