Both hardware and software prefetching have been shown to be e ective in tolerating the large memory latencies inherent in shared-memory multiprocessors however, both types of pre...
We explore different prefetch distance-degree combinations and very simple, low-cost adaptive policies on a superscalar core with a high bandwidth, high capacity on-chip memory hie...
Prefetching in shared-memory multiprocessor systems is an increasingly difficult problem. As system designs grow to incorporate larger numbers of faster processors, memory latency...
Cache optimizations typically include code transformations to increase the locality of memory accesses. An orthogonal approach is to enable for latency hiding by introducing prefet...
In many of today's applications, access to storage constitutes the major cost of processing a user request. Data prefetching has been used to alleviate the storage access lat...
