1. A method comprising:
- receiving a request from a first processor for access to a shared resource in a computing system;
providing access by the first processor to the shared resource at a first clock frequency;
receiving a request from a second processor for access to the shared resource; and
providing access by the second processor to the shared resource at a second clock frequency, wherein the second clock frequency is lower than the first clock frequency.

Abstract
A request from a first processor for access to a shared resource in a computing system is received, and access is provided to the shared resource by the first processor at a first clock frequency. A request from a second processor for access to a shared resource in a computing system is received, and access is provided to the shared resource by the second processor at a second clock frequency that is lower than the first clock frequency.

10. A system comprising:
-
a first processor configured to access a shared resource in a computing system; a second processor configured to access a shared resource; clock circuitry configured to provide a clock signal for clocking access to the shared resource, wherein the clock circuitry is configured to provide the clock signal with a first clock frequency when the first processor accesses the shared resource and wherein the clock circuitry is configured to provide the clock signal with a second clock frequency when the second processor accesses the shared resource. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
