A Flexible Resource Manager, or FRM, enables multiple clients to share disparate resources, including database connections, communication ports and tasks for multiple clients. The approach balances performance issues, such as the latency introduced by resource allocation, with the overhead of retaining unused resources, while providing for demand-based allocation, reuse of already allocated resources, and removal of resources under the control of an aging parameter. During registration, each resource object class and its corresponding constructor parameters are stored, and a resource pool is configured to contain a maximum and minimum number of instances. When registration completes, the FRM returns back a unique identifier that the application can use request instances of these resources in the future. Drivers or other dependent resources supporting the managed resource are only loaded when needed, thereby conserving memory and processing overhead.

First group and second group use the same joint set of random access parameters for the random access procedure, thus ensuring equivalent fairness in accessing the offered the resources units to transmit data during the reserved TXOP to several BSSs.

A dynamic predictive and / or exact caching mechanism is provided in various stages of a microprocessor pipeline so that various control signals can be stored and memorized in the course of program execution. Exact control signal vector caching may be done. Whenever an issue group is formed following instruction decode, register renaming, and dependency checking, an encoded copy of the issue group information can be cached under the tag of the leading instruction. The resulting dependency cache or control vector cache can be accessed right at the beginning of the instruction issue logic stage of the microprocessor pipeline the next time the corresponding group of instructions come up for re-execution. Since the encoded issue group bit pattern may be accessed in a single cycle out of the cache, the resulting microprocessor pipeline with this embodiment can be seen as two parallel pipes, where the shorter pipe is followed if there is a dependency cache or control vector cache hit.

In prior art, selection of precoding granularity is affected by two inter-restricting factors, i.e., precoding accuracy and channel estimation at a mobile terminal. To solve this problem, the present invention provides a method of maintaining coherency of a precoding channel in a communication network and an associated apparatus.
