Abstract
Systems and techniques for advance cache allocation are described. A described technique includes selecting a job from a plurality of jobs; selecting a processor core from a plurality of processor cores to execute the selected job; receiving a message which describes future memory accesses that will be generated by the selected job; generating a memory burst request based on the message; performing the memory burst request to load data from a memory to at least a dedicated portion of a cache, the cache corresponding to the selected processor core; and starting the selected job on the selected processor core. The technique can include performing an action indicated by a send message to write one or more values from another dedicated portion of the cache to the memory.
