Abstract: A method includes, in one non-limiting embodiment, receiving a command originating from an initiator at a controller associated with a non-volatile mass memory coupled with a host device, the command being a command to write data that is currently resident in a memory of the host device to the non-volatile mass memory; moving the data that is currently resident in the memory of the host device from an original location to a portion of the memory allocated for use at least by the non-volatile mass memory; and acknowledging to the initiator that the command to write the data to the non-volatile mass memory has been executed. An apparatus configured to perform the method is also described.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program product are used for reading from a table that splits a plurality of physical addresses between a plurality of channels. One of the physical addresses is determined based at least partly on a virtual address used by an execution device such as the hardware environment, and based at least partly on information about a channel. Then, the physical address is provided to the execution device.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and software product allow signalling toward a multi-channel memory subsystem within an application processing architecture, and routing of that signalling via a single sandbox which provides memory protection by controlling memory usage and blocking the signalling if it is unauthorized. The signalling via the sandbox leads to a plurality of different memory locations, and the sandbox is an intermediary for substantially all execution memory accesses to the multi-channel memory subsystem.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for accelerating program execution in platform-independent systems by eliminating repeated hot spot recognition in virtual machines. Optimization information for programs operable on a target device is stored. It is determined whether stored optimization information exists for a current program available on the target device, and if so, the optimization information associated with the current program is retrieved. The retrieved optimization information is used to identify program code segments earlier identified for optimization processing. Portions of the current program not identified for optimization processing are interpreted via an interpreter, and at substantially the same time, the program code segments identified for optimization processing to native code of the target device are compiled. Using the stored optimization information eliminates the need to analyze the program for program hot spots each time the program is loaded.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of creating a virtual memory space in a memory. In order to improve the efficiency of the memory, the method comprises determining whether additional memory space is needed in the memory. If additional memory space is needed, selected portions of memory content stored in the memory are compressed. Memory space which is no longer needed by the compressed selected portions of memory content is released for use as virtual memory space. The invention relates equally to a memory manager controlling a memory accordingly, to a system comprising such a memory manager and a memory, and to a software realizing the steps of the method when running in a memory manager.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of and an arrangement for controlling the cursor movement on a computer display by means of a pointing device such as a mouse. The mouse driver, which is installed in the computer, converts the manually caused movement of the ball of the mouse to a corresponding scaled movement of the cursor on the display.
