Software prefetching has been demonstrated as a powerful technique to tolerate long load latencies. However, to be effective, prefetching must target the most critical (frequently...
Linked data structure (LDS) accesses are critical to the performance of many large scale applications. Techniques have been proposed to prefetch such accesses. Unfortunately, many...
Data prefetching technique is widely used to bridge the growing performance gap between processor and memory. Numerous prefetching techniques have been proposed to exploit data pa...
We explore different prefetch distance-degree combinations and very simple, low-cost adaptive policies on a superscalar core with a high bandwidth, high capacity on-chip memory hie...
