Greetings - it seems as though the work we've done in DS/DA has exposed some 
interesting thinking particularly with respect to NVM.  I think it's worthy of 
exposing it to a broader audience at the OFA workshop.  Here's a starting point 
for an abstract:

OFI Data Storage / Data Access in a World of NVM
The Data Storage/Data Access work group (part of the broader OFI project to 
develop transport-neutral APIs) has been considering the role of a possible new 
API in accessing Non-Volatile Memory (NVM), to include both local and remote 
versions.  Of particular interest is the use of byte-addressable NVM, and 
particularly remote byte-addressable NVM.  In this session, we will describe 
the exploratory work that has been done resulting and the small number of 
system models we have developed in order to describe the methods that could be 
used by consumers to access these devices.

Comments by email are always welcome, but in any case let's plan to discuss 
this at tomorrow's meeting.
Regards,
-Paul
