Abstract
A bus arbitration section and a resource control section are interposed between a shared resource and a plurality of bus masters. The minimum number of receivable access permissions within a given period is set as bus arbitration information for each of the bus masters. If two or more of the bus masters issue access requests at the same time, the bus arbitration section preferentially gives access permission to a bus master which gained access permission a number of times less than a set value in the bus arbitration information within the given period, out of the two or more access bus masters.
