This project uses C programming to understand how malloc() works. In this small project, we will need to implement a memory allocator, which allows users to malloc() and free() memory as needed. The allocator will request large chunks of memory from the OS, and manage all the bookkeeping and memory efficiently. The allocator that will need to be implemented is inspired by the DLMalloc allocator. Also inspired by the DLMalloc allocator is the PTMalloc allocator, which is currently used by GLibC. Our allocator is a simplified version, but if you look through the approach taken by DLMalloc you will notice many similarities. Please message me if you are interested in working with me on this small project. I can forward the project site.

I am very proficient in c and c++. I have 16 years c++ developing experience now, and have worked for more than 7 years. My work is online game developing, and mainly focus on server side, using c++ under Linux environment. I made many great projects using c++, for example, I made the tools which could convert java codes into c++ scripts, of course garbage collection included, this was very similar to a compiler, and was very complex. I also made our own mobile game using c++, I can show you the demo of client, if you like. I am very proficient in java also. I have a very good review on Freelancer.com, I never miss a project once I accept the job, you can check my review. Trust me, please let expert help you.

Your requirement is of a Memory allocator and deallocator. The scheme is actually dynamic memory allocation. At run time the program request required memory for execution and task completion and releases or frees the allocated memory once done. In C, we use malloc() and free() function for dynamic memory allocation. In c++ we do the same with new and delete operators. I your project ,you require a Memory Allocator that uses malloc() and free() functions of C. Also The allocator will request large chunks of memory from the OS, and manage all the bookkeeping and memory efficiently. I have been working on C/C++/C#.net/java from the last 17 years. Kindly provide more details in chat of how you are going to make use of the developed Memory Allocator.

Allocating a large chunk of memory is a piece of cake. The main problem is how to free it and manage that allocated memory. And that needs some technique and only experienced developer can successfully manage it. I am sure I can do this
