New! An intro to emerging persistent memory (PM) technologies that promise the performance of dynamic random-access memory #DRAM with the durability of traditional #storage #media, such as #hard #disks and solid-state drives #SSD . bit.ly/3JfFi9q #persistentmemory

The wifi went out for 90 minutes. You would think that we had stepped back into pioneer times. Luckily, no one got dysentery.

THRILLED that our ASPLOS 2020 paper on understanding hardware acceleration opportunities in data centers has been named an IEEE Micro Top Pick for 2020! @UMichCSE @MichiganSystems @WICARCH @ieeemicro
Late tweet storm: My work was accepted to @ASPLOSConf! This paper (1) systematically identifies hyperscale web service functionalities to be accelerated (disclosure: it’s not what u typically expect e.g., u leave a lot on the table even if u fully optimize ML inference)

Excited to announce our upcoming MICRO’19 paper on a principled approach to stop speculative execution attacks. This is one of my *absolute* favorite projects. Kudos to my students @ofir1942 @iangneal @kevbob_loughlin Joint with @ThomasWenisch #spectre #meltdown #foreshadow

Yesterday, the Regents of the University of Michigan voted to approve my promotion to the rank of professor of electrical engineering and computer science. My thanks to the (anonymous) members of the computer architecture research community that wrote in support of my case.

So current state of #MDS mitigation can be summarized as: 1. We flush buffers at privilege boundaries by overloading (rarely used instruction) VERW with a buffer flushing side effect semantics 2. Add options to easily disable SMT on impacted systems (user choice)
A newly disclosed speculative execution side-channel vulnerability known as #MDS (and also as #RIDL and #Fallout) has been disclosed this morning. Here is a detailed technical write-up and three minute info video. There's also a 20min long form video if you want a real deep dive
