  • Abstract
    Emerging nonvolatile storage technologies promise orders-of-magnitude bandwidth increases and latency reductions, but fully realizing their potential requires minimizing storage software overhead and rethinking the roles of hardware and software in storage systems. The Web extra at http://youtu.be/pAALQ6k-CbE is an audio interview in which guest editor Simon S.Y. Shim interviews Steven Swanson about emerging nonvolatile storage technologies.
