Abstract:
As we plan for EXASCALE computing in the next decade, we must also plan for the mechanisms needed to reference ExaBytes of Physical Memory. These mechanisms may require having an address space greater than 64 bits. We will examine architectural defined memory reference extensions that include: 128 bit virtual address, global protection control, incorporation of non-volatile memory in the processor address hierarchy and PGAS memory reference mechanisms.
