Abstract
In a method for computer-assisted operation of a memory unit, encoded data is saved in the memory unit. The data is retrieved and decoded after retrieval. The memory unit is monitored for errors in that a temporal sequence of computer-assisted checking operations is carried out for the memory unit. For first-time encoding of the data, each required application data set is generated or selected, containing check data segments. For each application data set, the check data segment is occupied by count data, which characterizes the checking operation being implemented. After retrieving and decoding the application data sets, an error is determined when the count data characterizes neither the checking operation being implemented nor the most recent completely implemented checking operation. The check data segment of the relevant application data set is occupied by count data, which characterizes the checking operation being implemented, if no error was determined.
