ABSTRACT:
Checking for memory access collisions in a multiple processor architecture is described. Memory access collisions may be found by simulating an instruction to be executed by a multiple processor computing system in which the processors share memory access, extracting memory access information from the instruction, searching a virtual memory map for a memory access conflict, and reporting the conflict if a conflict is found in the search.
