Optical interconnect fabrics and optical switches are disclosed. In one aspect, an optical interconnect fabric comprises one or more bundles of optical broadcast buses. Each optical broadcast bus is optically coupled at one end to a node and configured to transmit optical signals generated by the node. The optical fabric also includes a number of optical tap arrays distributed along each bundle of optical broadcast buses. Each optical tap array is configured to divert a portion of the optical power associated with the optical signals carried by a bundle of optical broadcast buses to one of the nodes.

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to stacked memory modules. In one embodiment of the present invention, a memory module comprises at least one memory-controller layer stacked with at least one memory layer. Fine pitched through vias (e.g., through silicon vias) extend approximately perpendicular to a surface of the at least one memory controller through the stack providing electronic communication between the at least one memory controller and the at least one memory layers. Additionally, the memory-controller layer includes at least one external interface configured to transmit data to and from the memory module. Furthermore, the memory module can include an optical layer. The optical layer can be included in the stack and has a bus waveguide to transmit data to and from the at least one memory controller. The external interface can be an optical external interface which interfaces with the optical layer.

Methods and systems for storing checkpoint data in non-volatile memory are described. According to one embodiment, a data storage method includes executing an application using processing circuitry and during the execution, writing data generated by the execution of the application to volatile memory. An indication of a checkpoint is provided after writing the data. After the indication has been provided, the method includes copying the data from the volatile memory to non-volatile memory and, after the copying, continuing the execution of the application. The method may include suspending execution of the application. According to another embodiment, a data storage method includes receiving an indication of a checkpoint associated with execution of one or more applications and, responsive to the receipt, initiating copying of data resulting from execution of the one or more applications from volatile memory to non-volatile memory. In some embodiments, the non-volatile memory may be solid-state non-volatile memory.

The present disclosure provides a method for processing memory access operations. The method includes determining a fixed response time based at least in part, on a total memory latency of a memory module. The method also includes identifying an available time slot for receiving return data from the memory module over a data bus, wherein the time difference between a current clock cycle and the available time slot is greater than or equal to the fixed response time. The method also includes creating a first slot reservation by reserving the available time slot. The method also includes issuing as read request to the memory module over the data bus, wherein the read request is issued at a clock cycle determined by subtracting the fixed response time from a time of the first slot reservation.

A disclosed example apparatus includes a row address register (412) to store a row address corresponding to a row (608) in a memory array (602). The example apparatus also includes a row decoder (604) coupled to the row address register to assert a signal on a wordline (704) of the row after the memory receives a column address. In addition, the example apparatus includes a column decoder (606) to selectively activate a portion of the row based on the column address and the signal asserted on the wordline.

An example system in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure is to use local error detection (LED) and global error correction (GEC) information to check data fidelity and correct an error. The LED is to be calculated per cache line segment of data associated with a rank of a memory. Data fidelity may be checked in response to a memory read operation, based on the LED information, to identify a presence of an error and the location of the error among cache line segments of the rank. The cache line segment having the error may be corrected based on the GEC information, in response to identifying the error.
