Mitigating the Bandwidth Bottleneck with Approximate Load Value Prediction.
Design and Test, vol. 33, pp. 32-42, IEEE, February 2016
Abstract
Limited memory bandwidth and long access latency are serious GPU performance bottlenecks. For emerging applications that are inherently error resilient, this paper proposes to predict the values of safe-to-approximate loads and drop a certain fraction of the cache misses with predicted values to improve performance and energy efficiency.
