Abstract

In an embodiment, a shared memory fabric is configured to receive memory requests from multiple agents, where at least some of the requests have an associated order identifier and a deadline value to indicate a maximum latency prior to completion of the memory request. Responsive to the requests, the fabric is to arbitrate between the requests based at least in part on the deadline values. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
