Address-Value Delta (AVD) Prediction: Increasing the Effectiveness of Runahead Execution by Exploiting Regular Memory Allocation Patterns

While runahead execution is effective at parallelizing independent long-latency cache misses, it is unable to parallelize dependent long-latency cache misses. To overcome this limitation, this paper proposes a novel technique, Address-Value Delta AVD prediction. An AVD predictor keeps track of the address pointer load instructions for which the arithmetic difference...

Performance Bounds in OFDM Channel Prediction

OFDM channel prediction algorithms have been proposed to combat feedback delay in adaptive OFDM systems. However, no simple closed-form expression that relates prediction Mean-Square Error MSE with the design parameters in OFDM channel prediction has been reported in the literature. This paper attempts to fill that gap by deriving simple...

TCP Prediction for Adaptive Applications

Adaptive applications, such as real-time multimedia streaming applications, are increasingly using TCP as their underlying transport protocol. To adapt the content, an elastic application needs a prediction of the future available bandwidth. Unfortunately, the socket API does not allow an application to get information from the transport layer. Therefore, this...

Joint Channel Estimation and Prediction for OFDM Systems

Adaptive OFDM improves the system throughput by adjusting transmission parameters based on Channel State Information CSI estimated at or received by the transmitter. The improvement, however, is conditioned on the quality of the CSI, which can be compromised by estimation and quantization errors, and more significantly by delay. Channel prediction...
