Optimization of data prefetch helper threads with path-expression based statistical modeling
This paper investigates helper threads that improve performance by prefetching data on behalf of an application’s main thread. The focus is data prefetch helper threads that lac...

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...

A compiler-directed data prefetching scheme for chip multiprocessors
Data prefetching has been widely used in the past as a technique for hiding memory access latencies. However, data prefetching in multi-threaded applications running on chip multi...

A quantitative framework for automated pre-execution thread selection
Pre-execution attacks cache misses for which conventional address-prediction driven prefetching is ineffective. In pre-execution, copies of cache miss computations are isolated fr...

Partial Prefetch for Faster Surfing in Composite Hypermedia
In this paper we present a prefetch technique, which incorporates a scheme similar to data streaming to minimize the response-lag. Unlike previous all or none techniques, we propo...
