Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for allocating memory. A computer receives a request for memory to be allocated to a computer node and determines if the allocation request needs to be carried out on a cluster level, a server rack level, or on a server level. The computer retrieves a memory policy associated with the determined level the allocation request needs to be carried out on from a memory policy database and determines how much available memory may be allocated and if there enough available memory to meet the request. The computer reallocates the available memory to address the received the received request based on the retrieved memory policy.

Abstract: Mesh-based raw video data (or 3D video data) includes a sequence of frames, each of which includes geometry data (e.g., triangle meshes or other meshes) and texture map(s) defining one or more objects. The raw 3D video data is segmented based on consistent mesh topology across frames. For each segment, a consistent mesh sequence (CMS) is defined and a consistent texture atlas (CTA) is generated. The CMS and CTA for each segment are compressed and stored as compressed data files. The compressed data files can be decompressed and used to render displayable images.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system includes a processing circuit(s) allocating a page of system memory address space to a device. The allocating includes the processing circuits(s) obtaining base address registers of the device in a bus and determining a portion of the page of the system memory address space to allocate to the base address registers. The processing circuits(s) sorts the base address registers, in a descending order, according to their alignments and adds sizes of the sorted base address registers to determine the portion of the page. The processing circuit(s) determines a remainder of the page: a difference between a size of the page and the portion of the page. The processing circuit(s) requests a virtual resource of a size equal to the remainder and allocates the page to the sorted base address registers and to the virtual resource.

Abstract: An indication is received. The indication is of an address in a first page in virtual memory used by an application with a static memory corruption. A loadable kernel module will monitor the address. Access to the first page in virtual memory is changed from read/write access to read only access. A second page in virtual memory is created with read/write access. Whether a page fault occurs on the first page in virtual memory during the execution of the application with the static memory corruption is determined.
