Abstract
A data processing and memory system for transferring data elements page-by-page between several memories and modifying the data elements in the first memory. In order to reduce the set-up time when generating a new image, the processor stores the background color of the image for each new page. Then, when each new page is transferred to one of the memories, the background color is repeated for each data-element in the page.
