Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for brokering data exchanges between on-board and off-board systems of a vehicle. One method comprises receiving, at a data broker engine, one or more data requests from an origination system, wherein each of the one or more data requests specifies at least one or more of a request type and a target system. Then the data broker engine determines whether the request type is a one-time transmission, a periodic transmission, an event-triggered transmission, or a change-triggered transmission. Following the determination, the data broker engine retrieves data from the target system based on the determined request type and transmits the data to the origination system.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for processing load instructions are disclosed. A processor includes at least a data cache and a load queue for storing load instructions. The load queue includes poison indicators for load instructions waiting to reach non-speculative status. When a non-cacheable load instruction is speculatively executed, then the poison bit is automatically set for the load instruction. If a cacheable load instruction is speculatively executed, then the processor waits until detecting a first condition before setting the poison bit for the load instruction. The first condition may be detecting a cache line with data for the load instruction being evicted from the cache. If an ordering event occurs for a load instruction with a set poison bit, then the load instruction may be flushed and replayed. An ordering event may be a data barrier or a hazard on an older load targeting the same address as the load.

Abstract: A system for determining (a) forecast error and/or (b) scaling error for wind power generation is provided, the system utilizing generated and forecast time series for power generation derived from wind and analyzing temporal correlations in the wind fluctuations to quantify: (a) the forecast error defined by deviations between the high frequency components of the forecast and generated time series, and (b) a scaling error defined by a degree that temporal correlations fail to be predicted for an accurate predictor of wind fluctuations. Wind fluctuations may exhibit multi-fractal behavior at the turbine level and/or may be rectified to a fractal structure at the grid level. A memory kernel may be used to reduce the forecast and scaling errors.
