Reference Manual of Impulse System Calls
Lixin Zhang, Leigh Stroller · 1999
This document describes the Impulse system calls. The Impulse system calls allow user applications to use remapping functionality provided by the Impulse Adaptive Memory System to reorganize their data structures without actually moving data around the physical memory. Impulse supports several remapping algorithms. User applications choose the desired remapping algorithms by calling the right Impulse system calls. This note uses detailed examples to illustrate each Impulse system call.
