Abstract

A memory buffering system is disclosed that arbitrates bus ownership through an arbitration scheme for memory elements in chain architecture. A unified host memory controller arbitrates bus ownership for transfer to a unified memory buffer and other buffers within the chain architecture. The system is used within a communication system with a bus in chain architectures and parallel architectures.
