SHIFTABLE MEMORY

摘要

A shiftable memory is employed in a system and a method to shift a contiguous subset of stored data within the shiftable memory. The shiftable memory includes a memory having built-in shifting capability to shift a contiguous subset of data stored by the memory from a first location to a second location within the memory. The contiguous subset has a size that is smaller than a total size of the memory. The system further includes a processor to provide an address and the length of the contiguous subset. The method includes selecting the contiguous subset of data and shifting the selected contiguous subset.
