DESCRIPTION:Most recent hardware advancement towards Non-Volatile Memory (
 NVM)\, photonic Interconnects\, and heterogeneous multicore are dramatical
 ly changing the hardware architecture of modern computers. However\, impac
 ts on the systems software are even more profound. Last time a radical cha
 nge in computer architecture was introduced with the DRAM\, the operating 
 systems and systems software also underwent substantial changes\, such as 
 virtual memory. These changes also introduce new types of failures and fau
 lt management.\n\nIn HP Labs\, we are pursuing a novel computer\, called T
 he Machine. The Machine addresses the aforementioned advancement in hardwa
 re technology\, but it also introduces operating systems support and new a
 pplications. In this talk\, I will describe how we support NVM at differen
 t levels of software stack\, such as managing NVM\, programming NVM\, and 
 file systems. I will then present the impact on the next generation applic
 ations.
