  • Media processing system having resource partitioning
    Patent number: 8209514
    Abstract: A system comprises memory, process code, and resource partitioning code, where the code is executable by a processor. The process code may spawn multiple processes that request for access to the memory. The resource partitioning code generates resource partition objects and assigns processes to the resource partition objects. The processes may generate media store objects for storage in the memory. The media store objects may correspond to media storage devices and/or the media files accessed by the media storage devices. Access to the memory for storage of the media store objects of a process is based on parametric rules of the corresponding resource partition object.
