Compiler-Directed Content-Aware Prefetching for Dynamic Data Structures
This paper describes Compiler-Directed Content-Aware Prefetching (CDCAP), an integrated compiler and hardware approach for prefetching dynamic data structures. The approach utiliz...

Enabling Partial Cache Line Prefetching Through Data Compression
Hardware prefetching is a simple and effective technique for hiding cache miss latency and thus improving the overall performance. However, it comes with addition of prefetch buff...

Prefetching Using Markov Predictors
Prefetching is one approach to reducing the latency of memory operations in modern computer systems. In this paper, we describe the Markov prefetcher. This prefetcher acts as an i...

Neighborhood Prefetching on Multiprocessors Using Instruction History
A multiprocessor prefetch scheme is described in which a miss is followed by a prefetch of a group of lines, a neighborhood, surrounding the demand-fetched line. The neighborhood ...

Miss Penalty Reduction Using Bundled Capacity Prefetching in Multiprocessors
While prefetch has proven itself useful for reducing cache misses in multiprocessors, traffic is often increased due to extra unused prefetch data. Prefetching in multiprocessors...
