Abstract
A method and system for emulating a byte-wise programmable memory in a sector-wise erasable memory, where emulating a byte-wise programmable memory in a sector-wise erasable memory is based on dividing the sector-wise erasable memory in a plurality of sectors, dividing each of the sectors into several memory locations suitable to store containers, with each container having a header and a payload portion, and storing a data value relating to an application in the payload portion of one of the containers and header information identifying the application in the header in an available container. The containers can be block containers, and the data portion can have two or more payload values. The storing action can be performed in such a way that the two or more payload values in the payload portion together uniquely represent the data value.
