ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and system for transferring portions of a memory block. A first data mover is configured with a first start address corresponding to a first portion of a source memory block. A second data mover is configured with a second start address corresponding to a second portion of the source memory block sized differently from the first portion. The first portion of the source memory block is transferred by the first data mover and the second portion of the source memory block is transferred by the second data mover.
