Informed Multi-Process Prefetching and Caching
Informed prefetching and caching based on application disclosure of future I/O accesses (hints) can dramatically reduce the execution time of I/O-intensive applications. A recent ...

TCP: Tag Correlating Prefetchers
Although caches for decades have been the backbone of the memory system, the speed gap between CPU and main memory suggests their augmentation with prefetching mechanisms. Recentl...

A Performance Model of Speculative Prefetching in Distributed Information Systems
Previous studies in speculative prefetching focus on building and evaluating access models for the purpose of access prediction. This paper investigates a complementary area which...
