Research on heterogeneous memory systems

While computational power is steadily increasing in modern computing systems due to the rise of multicore and accelerated systems, the relative performance of the memory subsystem is falling further and further behind. In the context of High-Performance Computing (HPC), this can be partially compensated by combining traditional main memory with a small amount of high-bandwidth memory. In systems with accelerators, heterogeneity is already visible due to the presence of different kinds of memory. However, applications must be heavily modified and use vendor-specific application programming interfaces (APIs) to exploit different kind ofs heterogeneous memory.
