Description
design a customized memory management system similar like TC-malloc. But it is faster and more local-oriented. That is, each application can have its own dedicated memory pools for every purpose. The goal is to apply local memory boundary limits to each application so the fragmentation problem is restricted in local. We also design special allocation/deallocation strategy to minimize local fragmentation problem.
The difference of this memory system from TC-malloc is: tc-malloc is a global system, while this is a local, dedicated system. This system is not intended to replace tc-malloc, rather, it is to overcome global fragmentation problems caused by global malloc.
