Overlapping dependent loads with addressless preload
Modern out-of-order processors with non-blocking caches exploit Memory-Level Parallelism (MLP) by overlapping cache misses in a wide instruction window. The exploitation of MLP, h...

Soft error benchmarking of L2 caches with PARMA
The amount of charge stored in an SRAM cell shrinks rapidly with each technology generation thus increasingly exposing caches to soft errors. Benchmarking the FIT rate of caches d...

Physical Experimentation with Prefetching Helper Threads on Intel's Hyper-Threaded Processors
Pre-execution techniques have received much attention as an effective way of prefetching cache blocks to tolerate the everincreasing memory latency. A number of pre-execution tech...

SRM-buffer: an OS buffer management technique to prevent last level cache from thrashing in multicores
Buffer caches in operating systems keep active file blocks in memory to reduce disk accesses. Related studies have been focused on how to minimize buffer misses and the caused pe...
