Abstract
A system and method for efficiently accessing sparse data for a workload are described. In various implementations, a computing system includes an integrated circuit and a memory for storing tasks of a workload that includes sparse accesses of data items stored in one or more tables. The integrated circuit receives a user query, and generates a result based on multiple data items targeted by the user query. To reduce the latency of processing the workload even with sparse lookup operations performed on the one or more tables, a prefetch engine of the integrated circuit stores a subset of data items in prefetch data storage. The prefetch engine also determines which data items to store in the prefetch data storage based on one or more of a frequency of reuse, a distance or latency of access of a corresponding table of the one more tables, or other.
