There is provided a method for representing unvalues in an unvalue-unaware memory of a computer processing system. The method includes the step of selecting arbitrary bit combinations to represent the unvalues, upon startup of the system. Upon performing a read operation from the memory, a read value is interpreted as an unvalue, when the read value matches at least one of the bit combinations. Upon performing a write operation to the memory, a value-unvalue-collision exception is raised, when a valid value is written to the memory and the valid value matches at least one of the bit combinations.
