Exposing I/O Concurrency with Informed Prefetching
Informed prefetching provides a simple mechanism for I/O-intensive, cache-ineffective applications to efficiently exploit highly-parallel I/O subsystems such as disk arrays. This ...

Two Techniques to Enhance the Performance of Memory Consistency Models
The memory consistency model supported by a multiprocessor directly affects its performance. Thus, several attempts have been made to relax the consistency models to allow for mor...

Prefetching and Multithreading Performance in Bus-Based Multiprocessors with Petri Nets
The large latency of memory accesses is a major obstacle in obtaining high processor utilization in large scale shared-memory multiprocessors. Access to remote memory is likely to ...
