Abstract

Technology is provided to manage requests for physical resources in computing systems using system-aware scheduling techniques. Transactions having two or more dependent requests for a physical resource are identified by the computing system. Information identifying the requests as part of a dependent transaction is passed with the requests for the physical resource. In at least one mode of operation, a scheduler corresponding to the physical resource allocates submission of the requests to the physical resource using the dependent transaction information.
