Abstract

A plurality of resource requesters may be configured to consume a resource to perform a task. Each of the plurality of resource requesters can be allocated a resource budget to consume the resource to perform the task. An arbiter can select one of the plurality of resource requesters to consume the resource based on an arbitration scheme. When a resource requester is selected, the amount of resource consumed by the resource requester can be deducted from its resource budget. When the resource requester is idle for a number of cycles when selected, the corresponding resource budget can be further reduced to account for the actual amount of resource consumed and wasted by the resource requester, which can provide fairness in resource consumption over few rounds of arbitration.
