GPM: leveraging persistent memory from a GPU
Shweta Pandey, Aditya K. Kamath, Arkaprava Basu
Abstract
The GPU is a key computing platform for many application domains. While the new non-volatile memory technology has brought the promise of byte-addressable persistence (a.k.a., persistent memory, or PM) to CPU applications, the same, unfortunately, is beyond the reach of GPU programs.
