Zusammenfassung:In a data processing system, a mechanism provides independent assignment of page locations for a program's instructions and its data and better enables control to be transferred between programs, or portions thereof, that reside at different addresses in different pages of a multiple page instruction store. The initial linkage is established through the use of a Branch And Link instruction. Subsequent linkages are established through the use of Return and Link instructions, each of which transfers control to a previous program, or program segment, while simultaneously establishing the linkage for a subsequent return to this program or program segment.
