First Claim
Patent Images
1. In an optically-connected memory (OCM) system, a method for address space management, comprising:
- signaling a remote processor for receiving a remote machine memory address (RMMA) space that contains data to be transferred, andmapping the RMMA space to a free portion of a system memory address (SMA) space of the remote processor, wherein entries of a page table corresponding to the SMA space are created.

Abstract
A remote processor is signaled for receiving a remote machine memory address (RMMA) space that contains data to be transferred. The RMMA space is mapped to a free portion of a system memory address (SMA) space of the remote processor. The entries of a page table corresponding to the address space are created.
