Feedback mechanisms for improving probabilistic memory prefetching
This paper presents three techniques for improving the effectiveness of the recently proposed Adaptive Stream Detection (ASD) prefetching mechanism. The ASD prefetcher is a standa...

Stream chaining: exploiting multiple levels of correlation in data prefetching
Data prefetching has long been an important technique to amortize the effects of the memory wall, and is likely to remain so in the current era of multi-core systems. Most prefetc...

Competitive prefetching for concurrent sequential I/O
During concurrent I/O workloads, sequential access to one I/O stream can be interrupted by accesses to other streams in the system. Frequent switching between multiple sequential ...
