ABSTRACT:
A memory of a computer system is sized and configured after the memory has been loaded with data. The sizing and configuration of the memory causes the data to become scattered among memory chips on a single memory module or among two or more memory modules. To gather the data, gather code loads itself into the instruction cache of the computer system and while executing from the instruction cache configures the memory and gathers the data in the memory such that it is again located at the same address it held before the configuration occurred.
