AstriFlash: A Flash-Based System for Online Services

Babak Falsafi, Siddharth Gupta, Lei Yan, Mark Johnathon Sutherland, Yunho Oh

Modern datacenters host datasets in DRAM to offer large-scale online services with tight tail-latency requirements. Unfortunately, as DRAM is expensive and increasingly difficult to scale, datacenter operators are forced to consider denser storage technolo ...

Software tools for the lightning performance assessment

Carlo Alberto Nucci

This chapter describes two of the most adopted software tools for the evaluation of the lightning performance of transmission and distribution lines, namely FLASH and LIOV-EMTP (Lightning Induced OverVoltage - ElectroMagnetic Transient Program), together w ...

Three-dimensional radiative transfer effects on airborne and ground-based trace gas remote sensing

Alexis Berne, Dominik Brunner, Thomas Wagner

Air mass factors (AMFs) are used in passive trace gas remote sensing for converting slant column densities (SCDs) to vertical column densities (VCDs). AMFs are traditionally computed with 1D radiative transfer models assuming horizontally homogeneous condi ...

LMA Observation of Upward Flashes at Santis Tower: Preliminary Results

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Amirhossein Mostajabi

Lightning striking tall towers is mainly of the upward lightning type, which is characterized by the absence of a first return stroke and the presence of an initial continuous current (ICC) with or without superimposed pulses. The Santis Tower is 124 m tal ...

Bipolar Lightning Flashes Observed at the Säntis Tower: Do We Need to Modify the Traditional Classification?

Mario Paolone, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Davide Pavanello

We present and discuss current waveforms associated with 13 bipolar lightning flashes recorded at the Santis Tower during the period from June 2010 to January 2015. During this period, a total of 427 flashes were recorded, of which 13 (3%) were classified ...

Evaluation of the performance characteristics of the European Lightning Detection Network EUCLID in the Alps region for upward negative flashes using direct measurements at the instrumented Säntis Tower

Mario Paolone, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Carlos Alberto Romero Romero, Wolfgang Schulz, Davide Pavanello

In this paper, we present a performance analysis of the European Cooperation for Lightning Detection (EUCLID) lightning detection network using data obtained on lightning currents measured at the Santis Tower (located in northeastern of Switzerland) from J ...

A virtual screening approach to identifying the greenest compound for a task: application to switchable-hydrophilicity solvents

Luc Patiny, Philip Gregory Jessop

A virtual or in silico screening approach makes it much easier to identify the molecular structure that best combines efficacy for a specific task with safety and minimum environmental or health impacts. In this approach, software is used to generate a lar ...

A (Nearly) Free Lunch : Extending NAND Flash Lifetime by Exploiting Neglected Physical Properties

Xavier Jimenez

NAND flash is a key storage technology in modern computing systems. Without it, many devices would probably not exist today or would at least not benefit from as many features. The very large success of this technology motivated massive efforts to scale it ...

Design and Architectural Assessment of 3-D Resistive Memory Technologies in FPGAs

Giovanni De Micheli, Davide Sacchetto, Mohamed Haykel Ben Jamaa, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon

Emerging Non-Volatile Memories (eNVMs) such as Phase-Change RAMs (PCRAMs) or Oxide-based Resistive RAMs (OxRRAMs) are promising candidates to replace Flash and Static Random Access Memories in many applications. This paper introduces a novel set of buildin ...

Querying Persistent Graphs using Solid State Storage

Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis

Recent advances in solid state technology have led to the introduction of Solid State Drives (SSDs). Todays SSDs store data persistently using NAND flash memory. While SSDs are more expensive than hard disks when measured in dollars per gigabyte, they are ...

A termination scheme using intended asymmetric spatial filter response for averaging flash A/D converter

Catherine Dehollain, Shenjie Wang

Averaging network is adopted to reduce the front-end amplifier's offset in the flash analog-to-digital converter (ADC) commonly at the cost of the boundary threshold error. Such error worsens the integral-nonlinearity and introduces distortion. An averagin ...

Stream Carving: an Adaptive Seam Carving Algorithm

Pierre Vandergheynst, Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Daniel Domingues

We propose a new content-aware image resizing scheme, "Stream Carving", which is based on the well-known seam carving method. Our algorithm may introduce larger seams in the retargeted image, i.e. seams with a width larger than one pixel, that we call "str ...

Evaluating and Repairing Write Performance on Flash Devices

Anastasia Ailamaki, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis, Radu Ioan Stoica

In the last few years NAND flash storage has become more and more popular as price per GB and capacity both improve at exponential rates. Flash memory offers significant benefits compared to magnetic hard disk drives (HDDs) and DBMSs are highly likely to u ...

Saliency Detection for Content-aware Image Resizing

Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta

Content aware image re-targeting methods aim to arbitrarily change image aspect ratios while preserving visually prominent features. To determine visual importance of pixels, existing re-targeting schemes mostly rely on grayscale intensity gradient maps. T ...
