Abstract

Optimizations are provided for processing environments. Selected memory objects are tagged with unique identifiers by an operating system of the environment, and those identifiers are used to manage processing within the environment. By detecting by a processing platform of the environment that a memory object has been tagged with a unique identifier, certain tasks may be bypassed and/or memory objects may be reused, even if located at a different location.
