摘要: A digital data processing apparatus has plural cells, each with a memory element that stores page made up of subpages. At least one the cells includes CPU can request access to subpage. manager responds selected requests by (i) allocating, within local requesting CPU, exclusive physical storage space for associated requested subpage, and (ii) storing subpage in allocated space. The recombines pages deallocates them on basis usage state. also accesses asynchronously respect execution instructions CPU.
