Abstract
A method and a resource controller for controlling requests to a shared electronic resource, is described. The requests are arranged in the queue together with a counter which is set to a predetermined start value, the requests are served in an order chosen to take account of the number of commands necessary to process the requests in the queue, the service of each request is performed together with a decrement or increment of the counters for all requests which have been a longer time in the queue than the request that is served, and the request, which has been in the queue for the longest time of the requests in the queue is served when the counter of the that request has reached a predetermined limit value.
