Abstract:
A method includes executing a first memory access operation in a memory. A progress indication, which is indicative of a progress of execution of the first memory access operation, is obtained from the memory. Based on the progress indication, a decision is made whether to suspend the execution of the first memory access operation in order to execute a second memory access operation.
