Abstract: Methods, devices, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for improving the reception of data at a computing device by proactively utilizing new TCP connections in response to identifying that TCP connections have stalled. In an embodiment, a processor of the computing device may perform operations including monitoring a status of requests via a plurality of TCP connections, identifying a stalled TCP connection having a missing request based on the monitoring, wherein the stalled TCP connection is configured to utilize a first network interface and access a first data source, evaluating other TCP connections to determine whether the other TCP connections stall using the first network interface or when accessing the first data source; identifying a second network interface and a second data source based on the evaluating, and reissuing the missing request with a new TCP connection configured to use the second network interface and access the second data source.

Abstract: Adaptive hardware reconfiguration of configurable co-processor cores for hardware optimization of functionality blocks based on use case prediction, and related methods, circuits, and computer-readable media are disclosed. In one embodiment, an indication of one or more applications for possible execution is received. Execution probabilities for respective ones of the one or more applications are received. One or more mappings of the one or more applications to one or more functionality blocks is accessed, and a net benefit of hardware reconfiguration of one or more configurable co-processor cores of a multicore central processing unit for the one or more functionality blocks is calculated based on the execution probabilities and the mappings. An optimal hardware reconfiguration is determined based on a current hardware configuration and the calculated net benefit. The configurable co-processor cores are reconfigured based on the optimal hardware reconfiguration.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to managing applications configured for execution on a mobile device. An embodiment of the disclosure receives one or more network access requests from one or more applications executing on the mobile device, determines that the mobile device is operating in a background mode, suppresses transmission to a network of the one or more network access requests to a network based on the determination, and transmits a subset of the one or more network access requests upon transition out of the background mode.
