ABSTRACT:
An asynchronous access system for a computer system includes processing modules performing processes, at least one shared system memory module, and a system bus connecting the processing modules and the shared system memory module. Each of the processing modules includes a processor, a plurality of buffers coupled to the processor and to the system bus, and a controlling unit for writing data from the plurality of processors into the shared system memory module. Data is written into the shared system memory module by a processor generating write instructions to write data via the plurality of buffers and the system bus. The controlling unit controls the writing such that one writing instruction writes data into a plurality of buffers, then transfers the data to the shared system memory module via the system bus, with another writing instruction writing additional data into another plurality of buffers and transferring the additional data to the shared system memory module.
