Adaptive and integrated data cache prefetching for shared-memory multiprocessors

... yield a better overall scheme. We give a detailed description of the compiler analysis necessary for integrated prefetching. The performance of integrated prefetching is compared to software and hardware prefetching, and we show the effect of adapting the scheduling of prefetches at compile time. Finally, we discuss approaches that combine integrated prefetching with the adaptive hardware prefetching technique.
