Abstract
In multiprocessor systems it is desirable to look for and allocate storage without extensive data moving. Two techniques for accomplishing this, associative memory techniques and indirect addressing techniques, are described. It is concluded that the two methods are similar in performance, but that indirect addressing is more economical. An indirect addressing method is described in detail and various methods of implementation compared. The memory overhead and the time penalty (in memory accesses) are given as a function of memory size and method of implementation. It is concluded that a computed address table look-up technique should be used and that the block size should be either 256 or 512 words.
