After investigating the origins and device-level models of memory failures, to examine the impact of such failures on operations of a memory system, this research proposes circuit- and system-level modeling and simulation methods. With significant observations from simulation results, this research introduces design methodologies that mitigate row-hammering phenomenon by employing counter-based or probabilistic row activations and repair increasing wearout failures by exploiting error-correcting codes for the error detection and sequence of commands for error identification during field operations. To enhance the reliability of a memory system, this research proposes accurate memory reliability estimation and diagnosis methodologies using a system-level accelerated life test with a built-in self-test and error-correcting codes. This research also introduces a method of optimizing the design of experiments that isolates a failure caused by a target wearout mechanism from failures caused by other mechanisms and minimizes errors in the estimation of wearout parameters at the normal operating condition.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Design Methodologies for Scalable and Reliable Memory Systems "}],"uid":"28475","created_gmt":"2017-03-20 20:39:42","changed_gmt":"2017-03-20 20:39:42","author":"Daniela Staiculescu","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2017-04-20T15:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2017-04-20T17:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2017-04-20T17:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2017-04-20 19:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2017-04-20 21:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2017-04-20 21:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"434381","name":"ECE Ph.D. Dissertation Defenses"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"100811","name":"Phd Defense"},{"id":"1808","name":"graduate students"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
