Every time you run an application on your PC, a Prefetch file that contains information about the files loaded by the application is created by the Windows operating system. The information in the ...

Arm's Krish Nathella and Dam Sunwoo dig into research to make a practical implementation of a temporal data prefetcher that overcomes the huge on- and off-chip storage and traffic overheads usually ...

A newly published paper from researchers details an unpatchable vulnerability in Apple Inc.’s M series of chips that allows attackers to extract secret keys used in cryptography operations. Dubbed ...

A new side-channel attack called "GoFetch" impacts Apple M1, M2, and M3 processors and can be used to steal secret cryptographic keys from data in the CPU's cache. The attack targets constant-time ...

High-performance processors employ hardware data prefetching to reduce the negative performance impact of large main memory latencies. An effective prefetching mechanism can improve cache hit rate ...

Researchers have released details of an Apple Silicon vulnerability dubbed “Augury.” However, it doesn’t seem to be a huge issue at the moment. Jose Rodrigo Sanchez Vicarte from the University of ...
