Abstract: A system and method is described for simplifying implementation of repeater (e.g., re-driver/re-timer) module implementation in high-data-rate interconnects that carry a relatively low-data-rate clock signal as well as the data stream (e.g., PCIe). At the endpoint, any information critical to the function of the repeater (e.g., the most recent data rate negotiated by a pair of endpoints communicating through the repeater) is embedded in the clock signal by pulse-width modulation as ordered sets. The repeater only needs to read the clock-embedded information rather than decoding the data stream. Thus repeaters for such applications reconstruct the high-rate data-stream while actually decoding only the low-rate clock signal. Because the clock-signal protocol is independent of the data-stream protocol, the repeater's operation is protocol-agnostic with respect to the data-stream.

This user subscription and preference information is sent to the predictive pre-fetching support function that is preferably implemented within or across CDN server clusters. A preferred implementation uses a centralized back-end infrastructure, together with front-end servers positioned in association with the edge server regions located nearby the mobile core network.

Abstract: An apparatus, method and system is described herein for efficiently balancing performance and power between processing elements based on measured workloads. If a workload of a processing element indicates that it is a bottleneck, then its performance may be increased. However, if a platform or integrated circuit including the processing element is already operating at a power or thermal limit, the increase in performance is counterbalanced by a reduction or cap in another processing elements performance to maintain compliance with the power or thermal limit. As a result, bottlenecks are identified and alleviated by balancing power allocation, even when multiple processing elements are operating at a power or thermal limit.
