Software prefetching
TL;DR: These simulations show that, even when generated by a very simple compiler algorithm, prefetch instructions can eliminate nearly all cache misses, while causing only modest increases in data traffic between memory and cache.

Power Measurement and Concurrency Throttling for Energy Reduction in OpenMP Programs
TL;DR: This paper presents an analysis of factors that impact both performance and energy usage of OpenMP applications and informed the design and implementation of an adaptive run time system that automatically throttles concurrency using data measured on-line from hardware performance counters.
