Abstract
A method includes storing first and second sets of parameters in a register. Each set of parameters defines a storage transaction to store data to a computer readable medium or a retrieval transaction to retrieve data from the computer readable medium. The first storage or retrieval transaction is performed according to the first set of parameters. The second set of parameters is retrieved from the register automatically when the first storage or retrieval transaction is completed, without waiting for a further command from a control processor. The second storage or retrieval transaction is performed according to the retrieved second set of parameters. A system for performing the method and a computer readable medium containing pseudocode for generating an application specific integrated circuit that performs the method are provided.
