Dynamic Zero Compression reduces the energy required for cache accesses by only writing and reading a single bit for every zero-valued byte. This energy-conscious compression is i...
In this paper, we propose a cache design that provides the same miss rate as a two-way set associative cache, but with a access time closer to a direct-mapped cache. As with other...
Bursts in data center workloads are a real problem for storage subsystems. Data volumes can experience peak I/O request rates that are over an order of magnitude higher than avera...

File prefetching based on previous file access patterns has been shown to be an effective means of reducing file system latency by implicitly loading caches with files that are li...
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...
