Abstract:
A computer device comprises a first processor; a plurality of memory circuits, a first one of which comprises one or more other processors; a data bus coupling the first processor to each of the memory circuits, each of the memory circuits having a data port with a width of m bits and the data bus having a width of n bits, n being higher than m, the first processor and/or another circuit being suitable for reading or writing the data value of n bits in the first memory circuit by converting a first address into a plurality of second addresses corresponding to memory locations of m bits in the first memory circuit, and by performing the reading or writing operation of the data value of n bits in the first memory circuit over a plurality of memory access operations.
