Abstract
Described are various embodiments of a source-to-source compiler, compilation method, and computer-readable medium for predictable memory management. One embodiment is described as a memory management system operable on input source code for an existing computer program, the system comprising: a computer-readable medium having computer-readable code portions stored thereon to implement, when executed, a deterministic memory manager (DMM), wherein said code portions comprise smart pointer code portions and associated node pointer code portions for implementing a smart pointer that automatically corrects for memory misallocations in target memory allocation source code portions.
