Hardware-only stream prefetching and dynamic access ordering
Memory system bottlenecks limit performance for many applications, and computations with strided access patterns are among the hardest hit. The streams used in such applications h...

Improved stride prefetching using extrinsic stream characteristics
Stride-based prefetching mechanisms exploit regular streams of memory accesses to hide memory latency. While these mechanisms are effective, they can be improved by studying the p...
