==Original Abstract Submitted==

systems and methods for tier management in memory-tiering environments. in some embodiments, a method includes accessing, by a first process, a first page of the first process in a first tier of a non-uniform memory access memory; and locking, by a first thread, the first page against demotion. the first thread may be a tier-management thread of the first process, and the locking of the first page may be based on a service level of the first process.
