Ordered Access Memory and Its Application in Parallel Processors

In this paper, after analyzing the known memory access methods, conventional memory organization and its challenging problems, we propose new ordered memory access method and a new type of memory – the ordered access memory. This method is aimed at working with data arrays and provides memory access in the prescribed manner. Proposed method unlike widely used method of sequential memory access allows extending the functionality of the memory as it provides not only sequential, but also any other ordered memory access.
