ABSTRACT:
An adaptive weighted arbitration algorithm that is user configurable is discussed. The arbitration logic and algorithm considers past arbitration history events and is dynamic to allow for losing bidders to increase their probability of being selected to access the resource based on an accumulator value and a weight value.
