A DSL approach for object memory management of small devices
Kévin Marquet, Gilles Grimaud · 2007
Small devices have a specific hardware configuration. In particular, they usually include several types of memories (typically ROM, internal and external RAM, Flash memory) different in quantities and properties. We propose an object memory management where the placement of an object in a given generation is based on different properties. This approach is supported by a domain specific language allowing to write powerful and flexible placement policies. These placement policies completely describe the placement, in the different memories, of the objects handled by the virtual machine.
