Memory Management: Algorithms and Implementation in C/C++

Memory Management: Algorithms and Implementation in C/C++ presents several concrete implementations of garbage collection and explicit memory management algorithms. Every implementation is complemented by an in-depth presentation of theory, followed by benchmark tests, a complete listing of C/C++ source code, and a discussion of each implementation’s trade-offs.

• Find out how memory is managed at the hardware level by the processor.
• Discover the ways in which different operating systems take advantage of processor facilities to provide memory services via the system call interface.
• Understand how development libraries and run-time systems build upon the operating system services to manage memory on behalf of user applications.
• Learn about five complete memory management subsystems that utilize both explicit and automatic collection algorithms.

Bill Blunden has a bachelor’s degree in physics from Cornell University and a master’s degree in operations research from Case Western Reserve University. He has spent the past ten years performing R&D on enterprise middleware, implementing distributed computing software, and working with security protocols. He is also the author of Virtual Machine Design and Implementation in C/C++ from Wordware Publishing.
