Zusammenfassung:A communication channel controller includes a queue, a memory map, and a scheduler. The queue to store a first memory transfer request received at the communication channel controller. The memory map stores information to identify a memory address range to be associated with a memory. The scheduler to compare a source address of the first memory transfer in the queue to the memory address range in the memory map to determine whether the source address of the first memory transfer request targets the memory, and in response allocate the first memory transfer request to a first communication channel of a plurality of communication channels in response to the first communication channel having all of its outstanding memory transactions to a common source address bank and source address page as a source address bank and a source address page of the first memory transfer request.
