<p>A computer memory system (10) is provided for use with a user processor (20), and which provides automatic memory operations independently of the user processor (30). The memory system (10) includes a logical memory system ((10)) which is accessed by the user processor (20) through a binding register unit (15), enabling the user processor (20) to allocate blocks (40, 45) and specify the length of the blocks. Data (40d, 45d) within the blocks (40, 45) can also be specified by the user by relative indexing ("i", "j") with respect to a block specifier in the binding register unit (15). The user cannot access the memory (12) directly, but must access the memory (12) through the binding registers (21-30). The logical memory system (10) is controlled by a separate memory management unit (11) which manages the physical memory (12) of the system (10) which manages the memory (12) to have the logical memory system ((10)) appearance to the user processor (20).</p> |
