Abstract

A shared memory computer method and apparatus having a plurality of sources, a memory manager, and memory units in which the memory locations of data items are randomly distributed. The memory manager includes a translation module for locating data items in the memory units and a temporary storage buffer for storing at least a portion of messages between sources and the memory units with respect to data items.
