  • Patent number: 5819061
    Abstract: In a partitioned process environment, storage is reassigned by a shuffle of guest absolute address spaces which may be reassigned among partitions without restriction as to the position of the space to be reassigned relative to the position of the partition to which it is to be assigned. The reassignment is accomplished by adjusting the origin addresses by an adjustment value corresponding to the size of the address space of an additional memory area to be added to a selected partition. Furthermore, the size of the address space of the selected partition is increased by the same adjustment value. The system employs duplicated origin and limit arrays which are used to convert from a partition (guest) absolute address to a system (host) absolute address and uses duplicated configuration arrays by which the system absolute addresses are converted to physical memory addresses.

  • Patent number: 3977566
    Abstract: Semiconductor wafer handling apparatus comprising a wafer feed machine, a dispensing adapter, and a collecting adapter is disclosed. The wafer feed machine is adapted for the transfer of a plurality of semiconductor wafers from or to a wafer cassette and to dispense or collect wafers singly, in a horizontal disposition to or from a work surface. The wafer feed machine comprises a frame-like support member in which are rotatably mounted a plurality of feed screw means which are axially parallel and spaced apart so as to accept in the periphery of the screw threads a standard semiconductor wafer. The pitch of the screw threads matches the spacing of standard wafer cassettes to enable batch transfer of wafers to and from the side of the wafer feed machine. Common drive means are provided for rotating the screw feed means which produces axial movement of the wafers.
