Memory Erasability Amplification
[chapter]
2016
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
First, we provide a formal model of erasable memory. ...
Second, we investigate how the erasability of such memories can be amplified. We provide a number of constructions of memories with strong erasability guarantees from memories with weaker guarantees. ...
Memory Erasability Amplification We now describe several variants of imperfectly erasable memory that are relevant in practice, namely, memory that leaks a constant number of bits, memory that leaks bits ...

An Improved Analytical Expression for Write Amplification in NAND Flash

Agarwal et al. gave an closed-form expression for write amplification in NAND flash memory by finding the probability of a page being valid over the whole flash memory. ...
This paper gives an improved analytic expression for write amplification in NAND flash memory by finding the probability of a page being invalid over the block selected for garbage collection. ...
Flash memory has limitations that challenge the design of flash memory systems. One fundamental limitation of flash memory is nonsupport of overwriting and block erase. ...

WOM codes reduce write amplification in NAND flash memory
2012
2012 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)
For example, in a 16-level per cell flash memory, when a two-write MLC WOM code is used with a total overprovisioning of 0.8, the write amplification is 15% lower than a non-WOM-coded system. ...
It is shown through both analysis and simulation that, with proper parameters, flash memories which use WOM codes to encode data can achieve a lower write amplification than in a non-WOM-coded system. ...
Flash memory adopts block erase. This makes erasing whenever an update on a physical page is needed extremely inefficient. ...

A closed-form expression for write amplification in NAND Flash
2010
2010 IEEE Globecom Workshops
The log-structured filesystems typically used in current solid-state drive's (SSD) exhibit write amplification, whereby multiple NAND writes are required for each host write. ...
Write amplification negatively affects the SSD endurance and write throughput. This performance loss depends on the drive overprovisioning and the garbage collection method. ...
As block(s) of flash memory need to be erased before they are rewritten, the software layer of a flash memory device contains a garbage-collection mechanism to translate invalid pages to free pages. ...

On the distribution of valid pages with greedy garbage collection for NAND flash
2012
2012 IEEE Statistical Signal Processing Workshop (SSP)
Flash memory requires a garbage-collection process resulting in additional read and write operations, known as write amplification. ...
A block is the elementary unit for erase operations, whereas reads and writes are processed in terms of pages. Before data can be written to a page, the block must have been erased. ...

The synthetic workloads consist of uniform random writes and the write amplification is analyzed by means of a mean field model. ...
In the latter case adding more memory does not always reduce the write amplification, that is, there exists an optimal amount of memory. 3. ...

Reorder the Write Sequence by Virtual Write Buffer to Extend SSD's Lifespan
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
To extend the lifespan, SSD usually employs a write buffer to reduce write traffic to flash memory. ...
The two components work together just like the virtual memory adopted by operating system. So, we name the architecture as virtual write buffer. ...
Flash memory supports three basic operations, write, read and erase. Write must be preceded by the erase. An alternation between write and erase is named as an E/W (Erase/Write) cycle. ...

To reduce write amplification, this paper presents a new technique that cooperatively manages data in flash storage and nonvolatile memory (NVM). ...
Write amplification is a critical factor that limits the stable performance of flash-based storage systems. ...
Flash memory is an erase-before-write medium and the erasure unit (called block) is much larger than the write unit (called page) [7] . ...

HiFlash: A History Independent Flash Device

arXiv
pre-print
However, HIFS cannot provide history independence when deployed on top of flash devices, as flash memory manages its own internal block placement, which is often inherently history dependent. ...
Flash Memory. Flash memory is a non-volatile computer storage medium which can be electrically erased and reprogrammed. ...
NAND flash has several known limitations: block erasure, memory wear, and read/program disturb. (a) Block erasure: Flash memory must be erased before it can be re-written (i.e., erase-then-write). ...
