Storage area management for buffer memory - accessing stored information types and reading independently by monitoring and acting on entry times to prevent blocking

摘要

The storage area management method for buffer memories for temporary storage of information involves storing records of the entry time with the information as it is stored. The entry times are monitored and information cleared out which has been in the buffer for longer than a given time. - The entry times can be monitored at regular time intervals or in a fixed sequence. The addresses of the information stored in the buffer are held in a separate list memory.
