Abstract :
This paper discusses the architecture and implementation of HaL´s 64-bit memory management unit (MMU). The MMU is responsible for virtual-to-physical address translations, data movement controls, bus interfaces among CPU/caches, memory subsystems; and I/O systems; and maintaining memory coherency among caches and memories.
