PREDICATIVE AND PERSISTENT EVENT STREAMS

摘要

An event driven application may predict a future event and spawn an event stream from the predicted event. The spawned event stream may be performed as a predicted operation until the prediction is confirmed to be correct or incorrect. The predicted operation may generate results that may be present when the prediction is confirmed. In some cases, the results may be used prior to the predicted event, while in other cases, the results may be cached until the prediction is confirmed. In some cases, the predicted operation may be merged with an actual event stream when the predicted event occurs. The prediction mechanism may enhance performance, enable operations that would otherwise be difficult, and may save battery life or energy in some devices.
