METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING ADAPTIVE CONTEXT SWITCHING CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

摘要

The present invention provides a method for managing a transaction for a memory module in a computer system. The memory modules have latencies. A busyness level of the memory module for the transaction is determined. A projected response time for the transaction is predicted based on the busyness level. In some embodiments, whether to perform a context switching for the transaction is determined based on the projected response time and context switching policies. The context switching may be performed based on the determination.
