Abstract

Methods and arrangements to model an asynchronous interface are disclosed. Embodiments include transformations, code, state machines or other logic to generate a skew pattern for a semi-static or time-constrained, asynchronous interface and employ the skew pattern in data transfers during a time interval in which the asynchronous interface. Embodiments may than alter the skew pattern in at the expiration of the time interval. In many embodiments, changes to the skew pattern may be substantially non-deterministic. In other embodiments, chances to the skew pattern may follow a heuristic or other dynamic or pre-determined pattern.
