  • Optimized performance memory method and system
    Patent number: 5249277
    Abstract: A system and method for optimizing the performance of a computer memory system substitutes faster memory for a certain portion of the main memory. The substituted memory section automatically assumes a predesignated portion of the main memory and allows the main memory to become sequentially reorganized. Using this arrangement, for example, all the DOS applications that reside in the first 640 Kbytes of memory can be resident in the faster memory and the original main memory can then be used for other applications.
