Abstract
A method and system for transferring data elements from a computer main memory to a cache memory. The main and cache memories are accessible by a host processor and other bus masters connected thereto by a bus. Code data elements to be read by the host processor are predicted. The predicted code data elements are then transferred from the main memory to cache memory without delaying memory access requests for data from the other bus masters.
