Prefetching Policies for Remote Walkthroughs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a 3D data streaming approach for remote walkthroughs, that integrates local optimization techniques for realtime rendering with prefetching techniques for remote scene graphs. Especially culling methods, that don’t possess frame to frame coherence, can successfully be combined with remote scene databases, if the prefetching algorithm is adapted accordingly. We present a quantitative transmission policy, that takes the limited bandwidth of the network and the limited memory available at the client computer into account.

Improving the effectiveness of software prefetching with adaptive executions
The effectiveness of software prefetching for tolerating latency depends mainly on the ability of programmers and/or compilers to: 1) predict in advance the magnitude of the run-time remote memory latency, and 2) insert prefetches at a distance that minimizes stall time without causing cache pollution. Scalable heterogeneous multiprocessors, such as network of computers (NOWs), present special ...
متن کاملDistributed object computing caching and prefetching
Distributed Object Computing eases the development of distributed applications by providing location transparency for remote method calls to distributed objects. Since remote method calls involve a network roundtrip, they are expensive compared to local method calls. Several existing approaches reduce the number of remote method calls but they require a high implementation effort. The dissertat...
متن کاملOn-Demand Prefetching Heuristic Policies: A Performance Evaluation
Prefetching is a basic mechanism in the World Wide Web that speculates on the future behaviour of users to avoid the response delays. The relatively new requirement of the instantaneous response in some interactive services like On-Demand applications fuelled the need for ways to represent and reason about the challenging problem of prefetching control and performance evaluation. We study this ...
متن کاملA Status Report on Research in Transparent Informed Prefetching (CMU-CS-93-113)
This paper focuses on extending the power of caching and prefetching to reduce file read latencies by exploiting application level hints about future I/O accesses. We argue that systems that disclose high-level knowledge can transfer optimization information across module boundaries in a manner consistent with sound software engineering principles. Such Transparent Informed Prefetching (TIP) sy...
متن کاملAggressive Prefetching: An Idea Whose Time Has Come
I/O prefetching serves to hide the latency of slow peripheral devices. Traditional OS-level prefetching strategies have tended to be conservative, fetching only those data that are very likely to be needed according to some simple heuristic, and only just in time for them to arrive before the first access. More aggressive policies, which might speculate more about which data to fetch, or fetch ...
