At least since #MICRO2024 I'm loving the idea of walking talks at scientific conferences. It's so good to get a view, some air and nature between sessions. So here we are at the Environment and Climate Research Hub Retreat (https://ech.univie.ac.at/) #ECH @univienna, enjoying half an hour's exercise before diving in again into our #biodiversity #climatechange #pollution topics

#RichardThompson from #UniversityofPlymouth is summarising the last 20 years of #Microplastic research, taking us back to the very start where his boss wasn't convinced of the new area of research and it had to take place out of hours! We need more focus on #upstream measures & solutions, and we need to do it quickly. We need a #hazard-based approach and effective monitoring of interventions. Inspirational as always and the cinema here at the #MICRO2024 conference is rammed #PlasticPollution

Our paper "Elastic Translations: Fast virtual memory with multiple translation sizes" has been accepted at MICRO2024 (https://microarch.org/micro57/)! ET extend Linux to optimally and transparently take advantage of ARMv8-A's OS-assisted TLB coalescing. See you at Austin! #MICRO57 #MICRO2024
