Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for managing a heap. The heap is partitioned into at least one sub heap based on a relationship to at least one memory class of a plurality of memory classes. A memory allocation request comprising a memory class is received from a requester. A unique heap handle based on the memory class and associated with a specific sub heap is generated. The unique heap handle is then returned to the requester.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A computer performed method for managing a heap, the method comprising: within an operating system executing within a computer system, receiving a first call to an application programming interface for generating new sub-heaps, wherein a first sub-heap identifier for uniquely identifying a sub-heap is provided in conjunction with the application programming interface call; responsive to receiving the first call to the application programming interface, gen…
