Fundamentals of Memory Subsystem Design for HPC and AI

Abstract

This tutorial will help the audience understand memory subsystem design choices for various applications and systems: including technology, hierarchy, architecture, interface and packaging. The talk will begin with an overview of basics of memory subsystems including memory interfaces (device and module interfaces), controllers, subsystem architectures and RAS & ECC. The tutorial will then move on to explore memory subsystem design optimizations for HPC and AI applications.
