Abstract

Memory managements systems and methods that may be employed, for example, to provide efficient management of memory for network systems. The disclosed systems and methods may consider cost-benefit trade-off between the cache value of a particular memory unit versus the cost of caching the memory unit and may utilize a multi-layer queue management structure to manage buffer/cache memory in an integrated fashion. The disclosed systems and methods may be implemented as part of an information management system, such as a network proceessing system that is operable to process over-size data objects communicated via a network environment, and that may include a network processor operable to process network-communicated information and a memory management-system operable to manage disposition of individual memory units of over-size data objects based upon one or more parameters, such as one or more parameters reflecting the cost and value associated with maintaining the information in integrated buffer/cache memory.
