20120158522 | RANDOMIZED AUCTIONS WITH PRIORITY OPTION - Randomized auctions with priority option may be applied in scenarios where a small number of bidders value an item much higher than other bidders. In an auction of an advertising impression, an advertising platform may compute a priority price to be paid by an advertiser who wins a priority auction for the impression. The advertising platform may collect bids from multiple advertisers, and may determine, based on the bids or on election indications from the advertisers, whether to enter any advertisers into the priority auction. In the priority auction, the impression may be allocated to the advertiser with the highest bid, who may be charged at least the priority price. If no advertisers enter the priority auction, the impression may be allocated randomly between the advertisers with the top d bids, and the advertiser winning the randomized secondary auction may be charged a payment amount equal to the (d+1)-th bid. | 06-21-2012 |

20120072652 | MULTI-LEVEL BUFFER POOL EXTENSIONS - A buffer manager that manages blocks of memory amongst multiple levels of buffer pools. For instance, there may be a first level buffer pool for blocks in first level memory, and a second level buffer pool for blocks in second level memory. The first level buffer pool evicts blocks to the second level buffer pool if the blocks are not used above a first threshold level. The second level buffer pool evicts blocks to a yet lower level if they have not used above a second threshold level. The first level memory may be dynamic random access memory, whereas the second level memory may be storage class memory, such as a solid state disk. By using such a storage class memory, the working block set of the buffer manager may be increased without resorting to lower efficiency random block access from yet lower level memory such as disk. | 03-22-2012 |
20140195750 | BUFFER POOL EXTENSION FOR DATABASE SERVER - Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to a buffer pool for a database system. In aspects, secondary memory such as solid state storage is used to extend the buffer pool of a database system. Thresholds such as hot, warm, and cold for classifying pages based on access history of the pages may be determined via a sampling algorithm. When a database system needs to free space in a buffer pool in main memory, a page may be evicted to the buffer pool in secondary memory or other storage based on how the page is classified and conditions of the secondary memory or other storage. | 07-10-2014 |
20150121126 | CRASH RECOVERY USING NON-VOLATILE MEMORY - Crash recovery of a computing system in the context in which the computing system includes a volatile memory which has contents lost due to the crash, an intermediate non-volatile memory that (together with the volatile memory) contributes to the active memory of the computing system, and non-volatile storage. The recovery occurs by identifying pages that were in the volatile memory at the time of the crash. For each of these pages, the recovery determines whether to recover the page into the volatile memory from either the intermediate non-volatile memory or the storage, and then performs the recovery. In embodiments in which access speeds for the intermediate non-volatile memory may be much faster than for the storage, and in which much of the pages to be recovered are recovered from the intermediate non-volatile memory, the recovery time may be reduced. | 04-30-2015 |
