Abstract:
A multiprocessor system includes a plurality of microprocessors configured to operate on a plurality of operating systems, respectively, and a memory section configured to have a plurality of memory spaces respectively allocated to the plurality of microprocessors. Each of the plurality of microprocessors may include a translation look-aside buffer (TLB) and a page table register. The TLB stores a copy of at least a part of data of one of the plurality of memory spaces corresponding to the microprocessor, and the copy includes a relation of each of virtual addresses of a virtual address space and a corresponding physical address of a physical address space as the memory space. The page table register refers to the TLB in response to an execution virtual address generated based on an application program to be executed by the microprocessor to determine an execution physical address corresponding to the execution virtual address. The microprocessor accesses the memory space based on the execution physical address.
