Abstract
Memory management methods and systems for mobile devices are provided. A memory usage of a memory is monitored by a built-in memory management component of an OS of the device and a user-oriented memory management component. It is determined whether the memory usage of the memory is greater than a first threshold or a second threshold, wherein the second threshold is greater than the first threshold. When the memory usage of the memory is greater than the first threshold, a multi-level memory management is performed by the user-oriented memory management component. When the memory usage of the memory is greater than the second threshold, a primitive memory management is performed by the built-in memory management component.
