ColumnKeeper: Efficient Solutions to the ColumnDisturb Vulnerability in DRAM-based Systems
Andreas Kosmas Kakolyris, F. Nisa Bostanci, Ataberk Olgun +7
Modern DRAM chips are vulnerable to read disturbance phenomena such as RowHammer and RowPress, which induce bitflips after accessing nearby rows a certain number of times (the read…
Clutch: High Performance Vector-Scalar Comparison using DRAM via Chunked Temporal Coding
Daichi Tokuda, Tatsuya Kubo, Ismail Emir Yuksel +8
Vector-scalar comparison is a fundamental computation primitive that compares each element in a vector against a single scalar value. It is widely used in various data-intensive wo…
Memory-Centric Computing: Security Benefits and Challenges of Processing-in-DRAM
Ismail Emir Yuksel, F. Nisa Bostanci, Ataberk Olgun +1
Today's computing systems are processor-centric: they require frequent data movement between processing elements (e.g., CPU) and main memory (DRAM), leading to significant ineffici…
In-DRAM Signature Generation Using Simultaneous Multiple-Row Activation: An Experimental Study of Off-The-Shelf DRAM Chips
Umut Baser, Ismail Emir Yuksel, F. Nisa Bostanci +7
We experimentally demonstrate that it is possible to generate unique, repeatable, and device-specific signatures suitable for use as Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) responses in…
A Modern Large-Scale Memory Characterization Laboratory
Ataberk Olgun, Haocong Luo, Ismail Emir Yuksel +3
Real memory chip characterization yields insights into fundamental operational characteristics of modern memory, enabling new mechanisms that improve memory performance, robustness…
DiscoRD: An Experimental Methodology for Quickly Discovering the Reliable Read Disturbance Threshold of Real DRAM Chips
Ataberk Olgun, F. Nisa Bostanci, Ismail Emir Yuksel +4
State-of-the-art DRAM read disturbance mitigations rely on the read disturbance threshold (RDT) (e.g., the number of aggressor row activations needed to induce the first read distu…
