Abstract: Prediction logic analyzes previous data usage activities of a customer process running on a host machine to generate a first prediction indicating that the customer process will request a first data set at a first time. The prediction logic retrieves the first data set from long-term storage and loads the first data set into memory on the host machine in advance of the first time in order to provide the customer process with access to first data set in the memory during a period between the first time and a second time. The prediction logic further generates a second prediction indicating that the customer process will not access the first data set for a threshold period of time after the second time and stores the first data set in the long-term storage at the second time.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a system for providing DisplayPort communication over an extension medium is provided. The system comprises an upstream facing port device (UFP device) and a downstream facing port device (DFP device). The UFP device is configured to conduct link training with a DisplayPort source device using first DisplayPort configuration data (DPCD). The DFP device is configured to conduct link training with the DisplayPort sink device using second DPCD different from the first DPCD. The UFP device is configured to extract video data from DisplayPort data received from the DisplayPort source device and transmit the video data to the DFP device. The DFP device is configured to receive the video data, generate DisplayPort data as specified by the second DPCD, and transmit the generated DisplayPort data to the DisplayPort sink device as specified by the second DPCD.
