CS252: Reading Assignment #9
Due Friday Oct 16th


The reading assignment for Friday for CS 252 is to read the following
papers:
 
1) Norman Jouppi, "Improving Direct-Mapped Cache Performance by the
Addition of a Small Fully-Associative Cache and Prefetch Buffers."

2) David Kroft, "Lockup-Free Instruction Fetch/Prefetch Cache
Organization"

3) Todd Mowry, Monica Lam, and Anoop Gupta, "Design and Evalation of a
Compiler Algorithm for Prefetching".

4) Doug Joseph and Dirk Grunwald, "Prefetching using Markov Predictors"

You must also:
        - Write a one-paragraph paper summary of paper 1.
	- Write a one-paragraph summary of papers 2, 3, and 4.

Note that paper (2) is very short (but is referenced by everyone)

So, just to make sure that's absolutely clear, you are writing two (2)
paragraphs total.
