PCT No. PCT/SE85/00429 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 27, 1986 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 27, 1986 PCT Filed Nov. 1, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO86/03606 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 19, 1986.A priority apportioning arrangement for computers with processors of two types, namely a first high-priority type which can determine its priority itself in relation to processors of a second low-priority type when using a common bus. The arrangement contains a first logic circuit (20) which has its first input activated on a request for access from one of the low-priority units (3a-3h), its second input activated on a request for access from the high-priority unit (1) and its third activated during the whole time the bus is used and has two outputs for assigning the bus a low-priority unit or the high-priority unit. The arrangement furthermore contains a second logic circuit (40) with two inputs, of which one senses that the high-priority unit desires access and the other senses that this access can take place with delay, the circuit also having two outputs, of which one is for indicating to the first logic circuit that the access request from the high-priority unit is present, and the other for indicating that the bus is occupied. When the input signal to the second logic circuit indicates that granting the bus to the high-priority unit can take place with delay, the arrangement has time to grant the bus to a low-priority unit, but the high-priority unit still has immediate access to the bus after termination of the task of the low-priority unit. |
