Abstract

In order to divide a memory addressed unidimensionally into a plurality of memory areas and to manage efficiently these memory areas, the address to be accessed inside the memory is determined on a software basis by a computer instruction by use of the value of a first pointer designating each memory area and the value of a second pointer designating the relative address in the designated memory area.
