The challenge with embedded programs these days is a vast majority are written in C and C++. C++ can more easily mitigate some memory-management problems but not all.

Embedded memory IP architects must navigate these technology challenges while offering increased performance, density, and power management capabilities. There are several approaches that the embedded ...

Memory management is central to every program. Garbage collection usually addresses the problem better than explicit waste management.
