| Zusammenfassung: | The latencies associated with cache misses or other long-latency instructions in a main thread are decreased through the use of a simultaneous helper thread. The helper thread is a speculative prefetch thread to perform a memory prefetch for the main thread. The instructions for the helper thread are dynamically incorporated into the main thread binary during post-pass operation of a compiler. |
