Abstract
Dynamic arbitration based on a high priority transaction type. A first memory access request is received at a first request queue. If the first memory access request is of a first type, the priority of the first request queue is dynamically raised over the priority of a second request queue. The priority of the second request queue is dynamically raised over that of the first request queue when requests of the first type in the first request queue, up to a maximum predetermined number of requests, have been serviced.
