Abstract

A method for communicating data in a processing architecture comprising a plurality of interconnected IP blocks. Transmitting IP blocks may transmit messages to a shared receive queue for a first IP block. Receipt of the messages at the shared receive queue may be controlled based on receive credits allocated to each transmitting IP block. The allocation of receive credits for each transmitting IP block may dynamically managed such that the allocation of receive credits may be dynamically adjusted for each transmitting IP block based at least in part on message traffic associated with each transmitting IP block and/or a priority associated with each transmitting IP block.
