Abstract: A method and apparatus determines interleaving schemes in a computer system that supports multiple interleaving schemes. In one embodiment, a memory interleaving scheme lookup table is used to assign memory interleaving schemes based on the number of available bank bits. In another embodiment, the percentage of concurrent memory operations is increased by assigning memory interleaving schemes to bank bits based on the classification of bank bits. The present invention supports a memory organization that provides separate memory busses that support independent simultaneous memory transactions, and memory bus segments that allow memory read operations to be overlapped with memory write operations, with each memory bus segment capable of carrying single memory operation at any given time.
