ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus wherein a memory is subdivided into plural storage areas, and predetermined data are adapted to be written into respective ones of the storage areas, a method of reconfiguring the storage areas of the memory. The leading addresses of the respective storage areas and the sizes of blank portions of the respective storage areas are stored while it is discriminated whether a blank portion exists in a predetermined one of the storage areas. When there is no blank portion or substantially no blank portion in the predetermined storage area, the blank portions of the remaining storage areas are reduced in size on the basis of the leading addresses and the sizes of the blank portions. The predetermined storage area is enlarged by an amount equal to the amount of blank portion reduction effected in the remaining areas.
