DEFINITION

Classification: 711/202

Address mapping (e.g., conversion, translation):

(under subclass 200) Subject matter including translating (i.e., converting) processor memory address data to physical memory address data through a mechanism which defines a correspondence between the addresses.

(1) Note. The subject matter in this and the indented subclasses is aimed at determining a physical address using a mapping technique.

(2) Note. Classification here is proper for direct mapping for a segmented memory not being used in a virtual memory system.
