  • Method of managing memory for a PCI bus
    Patent number: 6374340
    Abstract: A method of managing memory includes providing a memory (190) partitioned into a memory tree having N memory levels and different numbers of memory nodes (100, 110, 111, 120, 121, 122, 123, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137) at each of the memory levels, providing a memory request, determining a memory request size, recursively searching partially-full subtrees within the memory tree to identify an empty one of the memory nodes minimizing fragmentation within the memory tree, and allocating the memory request to the empty one of the memory nodes.
