Abstract
A system and method for flexibly and efficiently allowing multiple categories of data to be managed using a circular stack containing pointers pointing to memory resources within a memory resource area. The pointers to these memory resources can be obtained sequentially only from a first part of the circular stack, but can be placed into the circular stack at different locations depending upon the characterization of the memory resources that the pointers are associated with. The system and method is used, for example, within a private branch exchange (PBX).
