Using a User-Level Memory Thread for Correlation Prefetching
This paper introduces the idea of using a User-Level Memory Thread (ULMT) for correlation prefetching. In this approach, a user thread runs on a general-purpose processor in main ...

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...

Many-Thread Aware Prefetching Mechanisms for GPGPU Applications
Abstract-- We consider the problem of how to improve memory latency tolerance in massively multithreaded GPGPUs when the thread-level parallelism of an application is not sufficien...

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...
