PCT No. PCT/GB85/00084 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 11, 1985 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 11, 1985 PCT Filed Mar. 1, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO85/04031 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 12, 1985.A computer system includes a central processing unit, a main memory unit and a master controller unit, which master controller interconnects the processing unit and the memory. The processing unit utilizes virtual addresses and generates virtual address to access the memory. However, the memory is accessed using real addresses. Thus, the master controller performs the required translating function for the interoperability of the processor and memory and does so without requiring instructions from the processor. This represents a significant decrease in processor overhead.
