Fast data delivery to users is a big challenge in client-server architecture-based data-
intensive systems. Here, prefetching is a widely used technique to increase data-intensive …

Data prefetching hides memory latency by predicting and loading necessary data into cache
beforehand. Most prefetchers in the literature are efficient for specific memory address …

Cache replacement policies comprise one of the oldest and most researched topic in
computer science. But recent advances in the fields of artificial intelligence and machine …

Content Delivery Networks carry the majority of Internet traffic, and the increasing demand
for video content as a major IP traffic across the Internet highlights the importance of caching …

With the advent of teraflop-scale computing on both a single coprocessor and many-core
designs, there is tremendous need for techniques to fully utilize the compute power by …

Cloud computing is gaining popularity due to its ability to provide infrastructure, platform and
software services to clients on a global scale. Using cloud services, clients reduce the cost …

Data-intensive Web Applications built using client-server architectures usually provide
prefetching mechanisms to enhance data accessibility. Prefetching is a strategy of retrieving …

Object-based cloud storage presents an unconventional storage model. Exploiting its
unique characteristics, such as the strong semantic correlations among objects and the high …

Among diverse parts in database systems, database prefetching, which aims at predicting
future page access patterns and fetching pages to be accessed ahead of time to mitigate …

On chip bandwidth is a scarce resource and the performance of prefetchers can be very
sensitive to the L2 cache bandwidth. Therefore any intelligent prefetcher should optimize …
