Abstract
An apparatus for and method of arbitrating bus conflicts is disclosed. The system can use information about the status of a data stream to switch between more or less restrictive prioritization schemes. In one particular embodiment, the arbitration system can also be programmed by causing it to store information on overall system requirements for data which the arbitration system can then use to set a current prioritization scheme.
