Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates in particular to a computer system including peripheral devices (600) and at least one switch (605) connected to each device. A first device includes a means for initiating a control of direct access to memory areas, each one of which is associated with a separate element of the system. The switch includes a means for transmitting at least a portion of the control to each element. At least one element comprises a second device including a means for receiving at least one control of direct access to a memory area of said second device, said control being received from said first device via said switch, and a means for transmitting said received control to a component of said second device. Said system allows said first device to perform a direct data transfer to or from a memory of said first peripheral device from or to each element. |
