A method to address memory in nodes of a distributed memory system includes partitioning the memory in each node into one or more memory blocks available for a global memory pool. The method also includes combining, in response to a request to address memory in the global memory pool, a global bit from a global page table with a physical address to generate a global virtual address. The global bit indicates whether the memory is local or remote. The method also includes translating, using global access tuple (GAT) tables, the global virtual address to a global physical address, and addressing a memory block in the global memory pool based on the global physical address.
