Abstract
The explosion of data and transactions demands a creative approach for data processing in a variety of ap- plications. Research on remote memory systems (RMSs), so as to exploit the superior characteristics of dynamic ran- dom access memory (DRAM), has been performed for many decades, and today's information explosion galvanizes re- searchers into shedding new light on the technology. Prior studies have mainly focused on architectural suggestions for such systems, highlighting different design rationale. These studies have shown that choosing the appropriate applica- tions to run on an RMS is important in fully utilizing the advantages of remote memory. This article provides an ex- tensive performance evaluation for various types of data pro- cessing applications so as to address the efficacy of an RMS by means of a prototype RMS with reliability functionality. The prototype RMS used is a practical kernel-level RMS that renders large memory data processing feasible. The ab- stract concept of remote memory was materialized by bor- rowing unused local memory in commodity PCs via a high
