Abstract
This paper relates to the implementation of MBALM/1700 by Mark Swanson during the summer of 1976 at the University of Utah. The MBALM/1700 report is discussed under separate cover (SWA76).During this implementation effort, it was found that an insufficient amount of main storage hampered the effectiveness of the MBALM/1700 machine. To create a more useful abstract machine, some sort of virtual memory scheme was needed. The scheme reported here was a modification of a scheme introduced by Belgard (BEL74). It illustrates the effectiveness of a modular VM subroutine package.

Next high performance and low power flash memory package structure
In general, NAND flash memory has advantages in low power consumption, storage capacity, and fast erase/write performance in contrast to NOR flash. But, main drawback of the NAND flash memory is the slow access time for random read operations. Therefore,...

These characteristics include low-cost, shock-...
