And please forgive me if those comments are already completely captured by the deck, and account that to my limited understanding and limited patience to thoughtfully read through 20+ slides.</font><br><br>
<ol type="1"><li><b><font size="2">generally</font></b><font size="2">: we probably shall not take persistency of memory as a challenge in this work group. it is a nice add-on, which we may make explicit use of, or ignore. if we ignore it, we still benefit implicitly, since that memory is denser and needs less energy (since it is persistent). any memory can be made persistent. it is just a question of the electrical energy one wants to spend, which is determined by technology used to store the bits. so it is a cost factor then only.</font><li><b><font size="2">use case: </font></b><font size="2">write once, read once scenarios are something we may look into as well. we may want to understand if persistency is a feature we can benefit from for this type of applications. think about serverless approaches (aws lambda, openwhisk, ...) which may provide great flexibility to classic big data computing (for what it is currently not being used), if intermediate results can be stored in remote PM, or local PM, which becomes remote PM for the next function. </font><br></ol><br><font size="2">Thanks,</font><br><font size="2">Bernard.</font><br><br><br><img width="16" height="16" src="cid:1__=4EBB08FEDFC8EADE8f9e8a93df938690918c4EB@" border="0" alt="Inactive hide details for "Voigt, Doug" ---04/12/2018 10:32:18---Fixed minor spelling error on slide 5.

We don’t have a shared repository, so there’s no locking mechanism. Not sure how to deal with that except to hope for the best. I suggest if you change the slide deck, re-publish it to the reflector and include your initials in the file name, e.g. OFA_RPM_2018_0411_jp.pptx. That way you’ll at least know if your changes got incorporated in later versions.</font><br><font face="Calibri"> </font><br><font face="Calibri">-Paul</font><br><font face="Calibri"> </font><br><font face="Calibri">Ps – Is there a volunteer to present this stuff on Friday?</font><br><font face="Calibri"> </font><br><font face="Calibri">Advanced Technology Group</font><br><font face="Calibri">Cray, Inc.</font><br><font face="Calibri">Office – (503) 620 – 8757</font><br><font face="Calibri">Mobile – (503) 703 - 5382</font><br><font face="Calibri"> [attachment "OFA_RPM_2018_0412.pptx" deleted by Bernard Metzler/Zurich/IBM] </font><br><tt><font size="2">_______________________________________________<br>Ofa_remotepm mailing list<br>Ofa_remotepm@lists.openfabrics.org<br></font></tt><tt><font size="2"><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__lists.openfabrics.org_mailman_listinfo_ofa-5Fremotepm&d=DwIGaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=2TaYXQ0T-r8ZO1PP1alNwU_QJcRRLfmYTAgd3QCvqSc&m=a0fcKXXWWwe9Mp3yYclJDVY-eqk8AfGMXmQKMSiZ3XU&s=8WWB4QVRaC-XMTNBoZ6YOWi5O5HZIWMijWJOKKOsges&e=">https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__lists.openfabrics.org_mailman_listinfo_ofa-5Fremotepm&d=DwIGaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=2TaYXQ0T-r8ZO1PP1alNwU_QJcRRLfmYTAgd3QCvqSc&m=a0fcKXXWWwe9Mp3yYclJDVY-eqk8AfGMXmQKMSiZ3XU&s=8WWB4QVRaC-XMTNBoZ6YOWi5O5HZIWMijWJOKKOsges&e=</a></font></tt><tt><font size="2"><br></font></tt><br><br><BR>
