Memory SER Concerns For Future Server Applications

Charles Slayman

Server designers need to know the type and rate of errors that will occur in order to design systems that meet the reliability / accessibility / serviceability requirements. A discussion of the needs of server designers and the design trade-offs that must be made to prevent cost or performance penalties will be presented.
