Potentials and Limitations of Fault-Based Markov Prefetching for Virtual Memory Pages (2008)
Gretta Batiels, Anna Karlin, Henry Levy, Geoffrey Voelker
Prefetching non-resident pages into memory before they are accessed can greatly reduce I/O stall time when compared with a fetch-on-demand strategy. While much recent research has focused on...

INTRODUCTION Prefetching non-resident pages into memory before they are accessed can greatly reduce I/O stall time when compared with a fetch-on-demand strategy. While much recent research has...
Implementing Cooperative Prefetching and Caching in a Globally-Managed Memory System (1998)
Geoffrey Voelker, Michael J. Feeley, Jeffrey S. Chase, Anna R. Karlin, Henry M. Levy
This paper presents cooperative prefetching and caching --- the use of network-wide global resources (memories, CPUs, and disks) to support prefetching and caching in the presence of hints of future...

Managing Server Load in Global Memory Systems (1997)
Geoffrey Voelker, Herve A. Jamrozik, Mary K. Vernon, Henry M. Levy, Edward D. Lazowska
New high-speed switched networks have reduced the latency of network page transfers significantly below that of local disk. This trend has led to the development of systems that use network-wide...
