Fast cache tracking to support aggressive prefetching
A Bloom filter is used to track contents of a cache. A system checks the Bloom filter before deciding whether to prefetch an address (by hashing the address and checking a value of the Bloom filter at an index based on the hash). This allows the system to utilize more aggressive prefetching schemes...

| Zusammenfassung: | A Bloom filter is used to track contents of a cache. A system checks the Bloom filter before deciding whether to prefetch an address (by hashing the address and checking a value of the Bloom filter at an index based on the hash). This allows the system to utilize more aggressive prefetching schemes by reducing the risk of wasteful redundant prefetch operations. |
