Question

Explain memory management functions in data structure
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The basic model for memory management is that we have a (large) block of contiguous memory locations, which we will call the memory pool. Periodically, memory requests are issued for some amount of space in the pool. A memory manager has the job of finding a contiguous block of locations of at least the requested size from somewhere within the memory pool. Honoring such a request is called memory allocation. The memory manager will typically return some piece of information that the requestor can hold on to so that later it can recover the data that were just stored by the memory manager. This piece of information is called a handle. At some point, space that has been requested might no longer be needed, and this space can be returned to the memory manager so that it can be reused. This is called a memory deallocation.
