Abstract

Memory resource partitioning code allocates a memory partition in response to a process requesting access to memory storage. Memory partition rules may define attributes of the memory partition. The attributes may include a minimum memory allocation and a maximum memory allocation for the memory partition.

First claim

What is claimed:

1. A memory resource management system for managing memory storage, the memory resource management system comprising:
a virtual memory allocator adapted to respond to memory requests from a process, the virtual memory allocator using virtual memory locations that are mapped to physical memory locations;
a physical memory allocator adapted to allocate physical memory and track which process is using which physical memory locations; and
a partitioning module tha…
