Abstract

Provided are an electronic device and a page merging method therefor. The electronic device may include: a memory manager that initializes pages and determines a page as a target to be merged if the page is initialized to a preset specific value; and a memory for merging multiple pages determined as a target to be merged and storing the merged page. The electronic device can determine whether to merge pages with a small amount of computation and merge the pages according to the determination result. Hence, the electronic device can manage the memory in an efficient manner.
