Abstract

A system-on-chip including an ingress arbiter module to receive a plurality of service requests from a plurality of devices located upstream to access a resource located downstream. Each of the service requests includes a quality of service value and a first timing budget value specified by the respective device to indicate an amount of time in which the respective service request is to be serviced by the resource. The ingress arbiter module selects a first service request based on the quality of service values, the first timing budget values, and a time delay associated with arbitrating the plurality of service requests and outputting the first service request downstream. A timing budget generator module generates a second timing budget value for the first service request based on the first timing budget value associated with the first service request, and the time delay.
