A memory allocator for embedded Radar signal processing applications

This paper investigates the lifetimes of the objects used by Radar signal processing(RSP) systems and classifies them into temporary objects and persistent objects. Based on this classification, we propose a memory allocator which is well suited for embedded RSP systems. It is shown that this allocator has constant response time and introduces neither internal nor external fragmentations.
