      Memory prefetching in computer processors is the practice of predicting memory addresses that will need to be accessed and issuing requests to pull data from those addresses ahead of time. These circuits are crucial to ...
    • Singh, Digvijay (2023-05-01)
      As the disparity between computational and interconnect speeds increases, the practical implementation of computers has shifted from a few, very wide cores to numerous smaller cores. These chip multiprocessors (CMPs) consist ...
