DESCRIPTION:By: Haibo Chen - Shanghai Jiao Tong University\n\nAbstract:\nT
 he recent availability of Intel/Micron’s 3D Xpoint to the market marks t
 he transition of non-volatile memory (NVM) from research artifact to real 
 product. While NVM shares similarities like persistency and byte-addressa
 bility with DRAM\, it has a different performance characteristic with DRAM
  and changes the persistency boundary of computer memory hierarchy. In th
 is talk\, I will first present a characterization on the performance of NV
 M and then presents a series of work that exploits NVM to build low-latenc
 y and scalable computing systems\, including file systems\, Java virtual m
 achines and transaction-processing systems. Finally\, I will discuss the 
 challenges and opportunities ahead and outline some future directions.\n\n
 Bio:\nHaibo Chen is a Professor at School of Software\, Shanghai Jiao Tong
  University\, where he co-founds and leads the Institute of Parallel and D
 istributed Systems (IPADS) (http://ipads.se.sjtu.edu.cn/haibo_chen). He is
  currently on sabbatical at Huawei\, where he founds and directs the OS Ke
 rnel Lab and serves as the Chief Scientist for OS. \nHaibo's main researc
 h interests are building scalable and dependable systems software\, by lev
 eraging cross-layering approaches spanning computer hardware\, system virt
 ualization and operating systems. His research work has been widely adopte
 d by open-source community like Linux and Open JDK as well as commercial p
 roducts deployed over hundreds of billions of devices\,  resulted in num
 erous publications in top systems conference like SOSP/OSDI\, and won seve
 ral best papers from EuroSys\, APSys and ICPP. He currently chairs ACM SI
 GOPS ChinaSys\, serves on the program committees of SOSP 2019\, CCS 2019\,
  IEEE S&P 2020\, ASPLOS 2020 and the editorial boards of ACM Transactions 
 on Storage and Communications of the ACM.\n\nMore information
