Abstract

In one embodiment, a system may include a memory unit, a first processing unit configured to write data into a memory region of the memory unit, a second processing unit configured to read data from the memory region, a first control unit configured to control the first processing unit's access to the memory unit and, and a second control unit configured to control the second processing unit's access to the memory unit. The first control unit may be configured to obtain, from the second control unit, a first memory address associated with a data reading process of the second processing unit, receive a write request from the first processing unit, the read request having an associated second memory address, and write data into the memory region based on the write request in response to a determination that the second memory address falls outside of the guarded reading region.
