Machine-readable media, methods, apparatus and system are described. In some embodiments, a virtual machine monitor of a computer platform may comprise a service virtual machine created by the virtual machine monitor partitioning an underlying hardware machine to support execution of a plurality of overlying guest operating systems, wherein the plurality of guest operating systems comprise a guest operating system complying with a non-native guest system architecture different from a host system architecture with which the hardware machine complies. The service virtual machine may further comprise a translation layer to translate instructions from the guest operating system complying with the non-native guest system architecture into instructions complying with the host system architecture.

A virtualization based system comprises a host and a plurality of virtual machines that may each comprises a guest memory. A virtual machine monitor has access to underlying platform hardware in the system and may control physical resources in the platform. The platform hardware comprises a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. Further, the VMM may manage guest software including guest operating systems running on the virtual machines. A binary translation logic may replace guest memory writing instructions corresponding to a hot spot in guest application with translated codes to generate a mirrored content for the guest memory. The binary translation logic may combine one or more of the guest memory writing instructions in a region and keep the region atomic. The processor may execute the translated codes in an atomic region together to write a content in the guest memory and a mirrored content in a mirroring memory. The VMM may allocate a memory region in the host memory for the mirroring memory. The guest memory comprises one or more guest memory pages and the mirroring memory may comprise one or more mirroring memory pages. The VMM may add an offset to a virtual address of a guest memory page to obtain a virtual address of a mirroring memory page. The VMM may manage or emulate a guest page table comprising a mapping between virtual address to guest physical addresses for the guest memory. The VMM may synchronize a shadow page table with the mapping in the guest page table. The shadow page table comprises a mapping of virtual addresses to host physical addresses for the guest memory and a mapping of virtual addresses to host physical addresses for the mirroring page. Upon a memory failure in the guest memory page, the VMM may restore the content of the corrupted guest memory page from the mirroring memory page.

摘要:
A nonvolatile memory element is disclosed comprising a first electrode, a near-stoichiometric metal oxide memory layer having bistable resistance, and a second electrode in contact with the near-stoichiometric metal oxide memory layer. At least one electrode is a resistive electrode comprising a sub-stoichiometric transition metal nitride or oxynitride, and has a resistivity between 0.1 and 10 Ωcm. The resistive electrode provides the functionality of an embedded current-limiting resistor and also serves as a source and sink of oxygen vacancies for setting and resetting the resistance state of the metal oxide layer. Novel fabrication methods for the second electrode are also disclosed.

A method and system of improved reliability testing includes providing a first substrate and a second substrate, each substrate comprising only a first metallization layer; processing regions on a first substrate by combinatorially varying at least one of materials, unit processes, and process sequences; performing a first reliability test on the processed regions on the first substrate to generate first results; processing regions on a second substrate in a combinatorial manner by varying at least one of materials, unit processes, and process sequences based on the first results of the first reliability test; performing a second reliability test on the processed regions on the second substrate to generate second results; and determining whether the first substrate and the second substrate meet a predetermined quality threshold based on the second results.
摘要:
Methods of annealing a thin semiconductor wafer are disclosed. The methods allow for high-temperature annealing of one side of a thin semiconductor wafer without damaging or overheating heat-sensitive electronic device features that are either on the other side of the wafer or embedded within the wafer. The annealing is performed at a temperature below the melting point of the wafer so that no significant dopant redistribution occurs during the annealing process. The methods can be applied to activating dopants or to forming ohmic contacts.
摘要:
There is provided a method and computer system for object persistency that includes: running a program; storing an object of the program into a random access memory in response to determining that the object is a non-persistent object; and storing the object into a phase change memory in response to determining that the object is a persistent object. The method and computer system of the present disclosure do not need separate persistency layers, such that the programming model is light weighted, the persistency of object data is more simple and fast, and implicit transaction process is supported, thereby a great deal of development and runtime costs are saved.
