NV-Tree: A Consistent and Workload-Adaptive Tree Structure for Non-Volatile Memory.

The non-volatile memory (NVM) which can provide DRAM-like performance and disk-like persistency has the potential to build single-level systems by replacing both DRAM and disk. Keeping data consistency in such systems is non-trivial because memory writes may be reordered by CPU. Although ordered memory writes for achieving data consistency can be implemented using the memory fence and the CPU cach...
