| Popis: | There is an increasing interest in developing Phase Change Memory (PCM) based main memory systems. In order to retain the latency benefits of DRAM, such systems typically have a small DRAM buffer as a part of the main memory. However, for these systems to be widely adopted, limitations of PCM such as low write endurance and expensive writes need to be addressed. In this paper, we propose PCM-aware sorting algorithms that can mitigate writes on PCM by efficient use of the small DRAM buffer. Our performance evaluation shows that the proposed schemes can significantly outperform existing schemes that are oblivious of the PCM. |
