 defining if it should participate to the arbitration. This '''active''' flag is always set to true for general purpose processors.
 Any arbitration thread receiving a timed request is resumed. It must obtain an up to date timing & activity information for all its input channels before making any decision.
-To do that, the LocalTime and ActivityStatus of all VCI initiators are considered as global variables, that can be accessed (for read only) by all arbitration threads.  
+To do that, the !LocalTime and !ActivityStatus of all VCI initiators are considered as global variables, that can be accessed (read only) by all arbitration threads.  
 The arbitration policy is the following : The arbitration thread scans all its input channels, and selects the smallest time between the active initiators.
 If there is a request, this request is forwarded to the target, and the arbitration thread local time is updated. 
-If not, the thread is descheduled and will be resumed when it receives a new request.

 For efficiency reasons, in this implementation, each arbitration thread constructs - during elaboration of the simulation - two local array of pointers (indexed
