Abstract:

A scheduling system includes a request masking circuit configured to receive a plurality of original requests for priority arbitration among a plurality of entries, the plurality of original requests include a last original request and a first original request following the last original request. A last mask associated with a last grant result for the last original request is received from a mask generator circuit. A first masked request is generated by applying the last mask to the first original request. A request selection circuit is configured to generate a first selected request based on the first original request and the first masked request. The mask generator circuit is configured to generate a first mask based on the first selected request. The first mask is associated with a first grant result for the first original request.
