There is described a method of managing memory in an electronic device, the method comprising creating a set of equally sized logical regions in a logical address space, each logical region comprising a plurality of consecutive logical addresses, and mapping a subset of consecutive logical addresses within each logical region to a set of physical addresses within a corresponding physical memory region, the subset of consecutive logical addresses comprising the first logical address within the logical region, said first logical address being mapped to a base address within the corresponding physical memory region. Furthermore, there is described a controller for managing memory in an electronic device and a method of determining a physical memory address in a physical memory region using such a controller.
