Abstract:
A method and system for allocating memory to a memory operation executed by a processor in a computer arrangement having a plurality of processors. The method includes receiving a memory operation from a processor that receives a memory operation from a processor that references an address in a shared memory, mapping the received memory operation to at least one of a plurality of virtual memory pools to produce a mapping result, and providing the mapping result to the processor.
