Topic: Emerging Challenges for Future Memory Systems
Abstract: Across all markets, computing systems are being driven to achieve higher performance in the face of rising power, cost, and reliability challenges. These systems are increasingly reliant on their DRAM memory, one of the semiconductor industry’s foundational components, to achieve system performance and power-efficiency targets. As the industry looks towards the future, increasing DRAM and memory systems performance is becoming more difficult as new reliability challenges emerge. In this talk I’ll describe some of our research work on RowHammer for server memory systems, and some of the key challenges future DRAMs and memory systems face in AI systems as data rates increase.
