Abstract

One exemplary method of assigning addresses in two or more address spaces with address fields of different lengths comprises defining address types, assigning a value to first bits at the high ends of the address fields to identify a first said address type, assigning second bits at the low ends of the address fields to identify addresses of the first said address type, and inserting different numbers of additional bits between the first bits and the second bits in the two or more address spaces.
