Abstract
An embodiment of the present invention provides for an apparatus for memory access demarcation. Data is accessed from a first cache, which comprises a first set of addresses and corresponding data at each of the addresses in the first set. A plurality of addresses is generated for a second set of addresses. The second set of addresses follows the first set of addresses. The second set of addresses are calculated based on a fixed stride, where the second set of addresses are associated with data from a first stream. A plurality of addresses is generated for a third set of addresses. The third set of addresses follows the first set of addresses. Each address in the third set of addresses is generated by tracing a link associated with another address in the third set of addresses. The third set of addresses is associated with data from a second stream.
