Meeting the Conflicting Goals of Low-Power and Resiliency Using Emerging Memories : (Invited Paper)

摘要

Emerging non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies are being aggressively explored to replace and/or assist conventional CMOS technology. Although NVMs can cut down leakage power, achieve low footprint and allow compute capability along with storage, they suffer from new sources of variability. We review the noise sources associated with NVMs and describe resilience enhancement techniques for both memory and computing. We also present security applications where noise and variability is desirable.
