Abstract
A system includes a main memory device which stores information for translating a virtual address into a physical address in response to one of a plurality of processing devices. A memory control/interface device is coupled to the main memory device. The memory control/interface device, which may access the information stored in the main memory device, has a separate translation look-aside buffer for each processing device. Each translation look-aside buffer can buffer the information for use in translating in response to the respective processing device.
