Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Embodiments relate to testing memory write operations. An aspect includes detecting a first write operation to a set of “n” divisions in a memory table, and defining a selected set of entries of an optimization checking table corresponding to the set of “n” divisions of the memory table. The aspect includes determining that at least one selected entry of the selected set of entries is not among an optimal set of entries of the checking table. The aspect further includes determining whether to generate an optimization error or to end an optimization analysis of the first write operation without generating the optimization error by comparing the first time stamps of one or both of the at least one selected entry and one or more optimal entries of the optimal set of entries to a temporal window defined by a predetermined duration.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A computer system for testing optimization of a microprocessor table function, the system comprising: a first computer configured to perform write operations to a memory table comprising a plurality of divisions, the divisions being at least one of rows and columns; and a second computer configured to check the write operations of the first computer for optimization, the second computer having stored therein a checking table including a plurality of entrie…
