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 ...

Modern computers separate computation and memory. Computation is performed by a processor, which can use an addressable memory to bring operands in and out of play. This confers two important benefits ...

Okay,<BR> I'm reading my old C++ textbooks from college and they all talk about dynamic memory allocation. We all know that when creating objects at compile time that they will be allocated to the ...

As someone who has spent over two decades in the embedded systems industry, I’ve seen the vast evolution of technology—from 8-bit microcontrollers to today’s sophisticated, multicore systems. Yet, one ...
