This paper proposes a new hardware technique for using one core of a CMP to prefetch data for a thread running on another core. Our approach simply executes a copy of all non-cont...
Many distributed applications can make use of large background transfers ? transfers of data that humans are not waiting for ? to improve availability, reliability, latency or con...
As the popularity of the World Wide Web increases, the amount of traffic results in major congestion problems for the retrieval of data over wide distances. To react to this, user...
There has been intensive research on data prefetching focusing on performance improvement, however, the energy aspect of prefetching is relatively unknown. Our experiments show th...
