1. Evaluation of Memory Prefetching Techniques for Modem Applications
University essay from Linköpings universitet/DatorteknikAbstract : Processor performance has increased far faster than memories have been able to keep up with, forcing processor designers to use caches in order to bridge the speed difference. This can increase performance significantly for programs that utilize the caches efficiently but results in significant performance penalties when data is not in cache. READ MORE

3. Prefetching for the Kilo-Instruction Processor
University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)Abstract : The large latency of memory accesses in modern computer systems is a key obstacle to achieving high processor utilization. Techniques to reduce or tolerate large memory latencies become essential for achieving high processor utilization. Prefetch is one of the most widely studied mechanisms at literature. READ MORE
