  4. Abstract:
  5. Many applications extensively use data objects with a regular and fixed layout, which leads to the recurrence of access patterns over memory regions. Spatial data prefetching techniques exploit this phenomenon to prefetch future memory references and hide their long latency. Spatial prefetchers are particularly of interest because they usually only need a small storage budget. In this chapter, we introduce the concept of spatial prefetching and present two instances of spatial data prefetchers, SMS and VLDP. © 2022 Elsevier Inc
