    Abstract: A computer system and a method for enhancing the cache prefetch behavior. A computer system including a processor, a main memory, a prefetch controller, a cache memory, a prefetch buffer, and a main memory, wherein each page in the main memory has associated with it a tag, which is used for controlling the prefetching of a variable subset of lines from this page as well as lines from at least one other page. And, coupled to the processor is a prefetch controller, wherein the prefetch controller responds to the processor determining a fault (or miss) occurred to a line of data by fetching a corresponding line of data with the corresponding tag, with the corresponding tag to be stored in the prefetch buffer, and sending the corresponding line of data to the cache memory.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for memory management.
    SOLUTION: A system for memory management includes a tag controlled buffer in communication with a memory device. The memory device includes a plurality of pages divided into a plurality of individually addressable lines. The tag controlled buffer includes a prefetch buffer including at least one of the individually addressable lines form the memory device. The tag controlled buffer also includes a tag cache in communication with the prefetch buffer. The tag cache includes a plurality of tags, where each tag is associated with one of the pages in the memory device and each tag includes a pointer to at least one of the lines in the prefetch buffer. Access to the lines in the prefetch buffer is controlled by the tag cache.
