VERFAHREN ZUM ASYNCHRONEN ZUGRIFF ZU EINEM GEMEINSAMEN SPEICHER

摘要

The invention provides a method of nonsynchronous access to a shared memory of a multiprocessor in which a plurality of processor modules are connected with a plurality of shared-memory modules by system buses. The method is intended for increasing the access speed and decreasing the system-bus overhead. The present invention allows the recognition of continuation of the access addresses for instructions to write and read data in and out of the shared memory by the processing modules, the request for block access by assuming the predetermined number of words as one block, and the recovery from abnormal execution of the write instruction in block access.
