VIRTUAL EXTENSION TO GLOBAL ADDRESS SPACE AND SYSTEM SECURITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18333750 titled 'VIRTUAL EXTENSION TO GLOBAL ADDRESS SPACE AND SYSTEM SECURITY
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a VEGAS approach for managing virtual memory spaces for processes running on compute blocks within a device in a computing environment.
- The device can execute multiple processes on different compute blocks within the device.
- Each process is allocated its own virtual memory space using an independent logical system.
- The device isolates the virtual memory spaces of each process, allowing each compute block to access only its own allocated space.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in:
- High-performance computing systems
- Virtualization environments
- Multi-tasking operating systems
Problems Solved
- Efficient management of virtual memory spaces for multiple processes
- Improved security by isolating memory spaces
- Enhanced performance by optimizing memory allocation
Benefits
- Increased system performance and efficiency
- Enhanced security and isolation of processes
- Scalability for complex computing environments
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized Memory Management System for Enhanced Performance

Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to a global address space (VEGAS) approach. The device may execute at least two processes within a device in a computing environment, each process running on a respective compute block of at least two compute blocks. The device may manage allocations of virtual memory spaces for the least two compute blocks using an independent logical system separate from the at least two compute blocks. The device may isolate the virtual memory spaces of the at least two processes by allowing each compute block to access only its own allocated virtual memory space.
