In this session the problems will be outlined in detail and an approach to deterministic dynamic memory allocation detailed. C/C++ Memory Spaces. It may be useful to think in terms of data memory in C ...

I recently presented arguments for and against using dynamic memory allocation in C and C++ programs. 1 I do agree that truly safety-critical systems should avoid using dynamic allocation because the ...

Memory safety in C can be summed up in a few words: there isn’t any! C is the most popular programming language used to write applications for embedded systems, particularly microcontroller-based ...

The C language, created in the 1970s and now running everything from smartphones to space vehicles and internet protocols, allows programmers to directly manipulate memory allocation.

This is certainly standard practice in both languages and almost unavoidable in C++. However, the handling of such dynamic memory can be problematic and inefficient. For desktop applications, where ...
