Abstract
A method and system including a short and long term fair shuffling procedure in an arbitration algorithm for a crossbar switch. The shuffling algorithm is deterministic, rather than random, in nature. The shuffling sequence is chosen to ensure a high level of short-term fairness. To ensure long-term fairness, all permutations are eventually used. Both row (input) and column (output) shufflers are used to shuffle priorities of requests. In a preferred embodiment, permuters and shifters are utilized in the shuffler circuits.
