Micro-architectural analysis of in-memory OLTP: Revisited

Anastasia Ailamaki, Danica Porobic, Utku Sirin

Micro-architectural behavior of traditional disk-based online transaction processing (OLTP) systems has been investigated extensively over the past couple of decades. Results show that traditional OLTP systems mostly under-utilize the available micro-archi ...

Global and high-level effects in crowding cannot be predicted by either high-dimensional pooling or target cueing

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Mauro Manassi, Alban Bornet, Oh-Hyeon Choung

In visual crowding, the perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. Traditionally, target-flanker interactions have been considered as local, mostly deleterious, low-level, and feature specific, occurring when information is poo ...

FloDB: Unlocking Memory in Persistent Key-Value Stores

Rachid Guerraoui, Mihail Igor Zablotchi, Vasileios Trigonakis, Oana Maria Balmau

Log-structured merge (LSM) data stores enable to store and process large volumes of data while maintaining good performance. They mitigate the I/O bottleneck by absorbing updates in a memory layer and transferring them to the disk layer in sequential batch ...

Structure of Herbig AeBe Disks at the milliarcsecond Scale—A Statistical Survey in the H Band Using PIONIER-VLTI

Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez

Context. It is now generally accepted that the near-infrared excess of Herbig AeBe stars originates in the dust of a circumstellar disk. Aims. The aims of this article are to infer the radial and vertical structure of these disks at scales of order 1 au, a ...

Storage method and apparatus for random access memory using codeword storage

Harm Cronie

A memory circuit, such as an embedded DRAM array, stores information as groups of bits or data using information coding in storage and retrieval data, instead of each bit being stored separately. Write data words can be mapped to storage format words that ...

Solid-State Storage and Work Sharing for Efficient Scaleup Data Analytics

Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis

Today, managing, storing and analyzing data continuously in order to gain additional insight is becoming commonplace. Data analytics engines have been traditionally optimized for read-only queries assuming that the main data reside on mechanical disks. The ...

Flash-aware Database Transactions

Radu Ioan Stoica

Over the past 40 years, hard disks, the traditional building block of storage systems, have become increasingly slower when compared to the other system components such as the main memory and the CPU. Hard disks face mechanical constraints that cause their ...

The neural correlates of non-retinotopic motion integration as revealed by high-density EEG

Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

Under normal viewing conditions, due to the motion of objects and to eye movements, the retinotopic representation of the environment constantly changes. Yet we perceive the world as stable, and we easily keep track of moving objects. Here, we investigated ...

Motion and tilt aftereffects occur largely in retinal, not in object coordinates

Michael Herzog, Marco Boi

A variety of aftereffects was found to be processed non-retinotopically. Other studies failed to ﬁnd non-retinotopic aftereffects. These experiments relied on paradigms involving eye movements. We have developed a paradigm, based on the Ternus–Pikler displ ...

Tashkent: Uniting Durability with Transaction Ordering for High-Performance Scalable Database Replication

Sameh Mohamed Elnikety, Fernando Pedone

In stand-alone databases, the functions of ordering the transaction commits and making the effects of transactions durable are performed in one single action, namely the writing of the commit record to disk. For efficiency many of these writes are grouped ...

On Multidimensional Data and Modern Disks

Anastasia Ailamaki

With the deeply-ingrained notion that disks can efficiently access only one dimensional data, current approaches for mapping multidimensional data to disk blocks either allow efficient accesses in only one dimension, trading off the efficiency of accesses ...
