MEMORY MANAGEMENT METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18106131 titled 'MEMORY MANAGEMENT METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a memory management module, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, perform various tasks including monitoring the termination rate of a process, comparing it to a threshold value, and rebooting the device if the termination rate exceeds a certain threshold.

  • The electronic device has a memory management module, a processor, and a memory.
  • The memory stores instructions that the processor executes.
  • The processor performs tasks such as executing processes and monitoring termination rates.
  • The termination rate is compared to a threshold value.
  • If the termination rate exceeds the threshold value a certain number of times, the device is rebooted.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied to various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, computers, and IoT devices.
  • It can be used in operating systems to improve stability and reliability by automatically rebooting when processes are frequently terminated.

Problems Solved

  • The technology addresses the problem of processes frequently terminating, which can lead to instability and decreased performance of electronic devices.
  • By monitoring termination rates and rebooting when necessary, the device can maintain stability and prevent potential crashes or malfunctions.

Benefits

  • Improved stability and reliability of electronic devices by automatically rebooting when termination rates exceed a certain threshold.
  • Prevents potential crashes or malfunctions caused by frequent process terminations.
  • Enhances user experience by minimizing disruptions and ensuring smooth operation of the device.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device comprises: a memory management module; a processor operatively connected to the memory management module; and a memory controlled by the memory management module and operatively connected to the processor. The memory is configured to store instructions which, when executed, cause the processor to: execute at least one process, identify a rate at which the at least one process is terminated, based on a preconfigured first cycle, determine a number of times the identified rate exceeds a first threshold value, and based on a determination that the number of times the identified rate exceeds the first threshold value is greater than a second threshold value, reboot the electronic device.
