3rd Annual Non-Volatile Memories Workshop
The 3rd Annual Non-Volatile Memories Workshop (NVMW 2012) provides a unique showcase for outstanding research on solid state, non-volatile memories. It features a “vertically integrated” program that includes presentations on devices, data encoding, systems architecture, and applications related to these exciting new data storage technologies. Last year’s workshop (NVMW 2011) included 32 speakers from top universities, industrial research labs, and device manufacturers and attracted 230 attendees. (The website for NVMW 2011 can be found at http://nvmw.ucsd.edu/2011.) NVMW 2012 will build on this success. FLYER
The organizing committee is soliciting presentations on any topic related to non-volatile, solid state memories, including:
- Advances in memory devices or memory cell design.
- Characterization of commercial or experimental memory devices.
- Error correction and data encoding schemes for non-volatile memories.
- Advances in non-volatile memory-based storage system.
- New applications of non-volatile memories.
- Operating system and file system designs for non-volatile memories.
- Non-volatile storage system performance measurements.
- Security and reliability of solid-state storage systems.

UCSD Non-volatile Memories Workshop
University of CA, San Diego
The Center for Magnetic Recording Research, the Non-volatile Systems Laboratory, and Calit2 at UCSD are hosting the first UCSD Non-volatile Memories Workshop. The workshop will bring together researchers and industrial engineers working on current and emerging non-volatile technologies and the data-integrity, systems architecture, and application technologies that will allow us to harness the potential of these new memories. The Workshop's goal is to bring a broad range of industrial practitioners as well as industrial and academic researchers together to exchange ideas, insights, and expertise, while fostering collaboration between different organizations and groups.
