Reducing resource collisions associated with memory units in a multi-level hierarchy memory system

摘要

A system and method for reducing resource collisions associated with memory units. Resource collisions may be reduced in part by a hash that combines the number N bits in the bank selector field with the number M bits adjacent to a region of correlation, e.g., row selector field, in an address to determine which bank in a memory unit, e.g., cache, may store the information associated with the address.
